If the men are angry, the answer is C, because irascible is an adjective that means easily angered. You can only put an adjective in the given space, so procrastinate and ire do not fit. (Even without knowing the definitions.) 
If the men are sad, the answer is D, because doleful means sorrowful or sad.

Not seeing the movie, you can use the context clues to guess that the men are grumpy and mad, so the answer would be C.
