The definition of an antecedent is "a thing or event that existed before or logically precedes another." What we're looking for here is the choice that lacks that or seems a bit incomplete due to lack of knowledge from the previous event.

I would go with choice B. The term "remark" is a verb that is used in the exchange of a conversation. The conversation is not being stated therefore it is an unclear antecedent.
