The scenario that is an example of verbal irony is: "Two characters get into a huge fight and then at the end, the one calmly says, 'We don’t get along with each other that well.'"
Verbal irony occurs when a speaker says something but means the opposite, or when their words convey a meaning that contradicts the situation. In this case, the character's calm statement contrasts sharply with the fight that just took place, highlighting the irony.
