The third sentence:
When he saw the bird flying in the house he got angry and demanded, “Who left the door open?”
Explanation: A direct quotation that is a full question is introduced with a comma, begins with a capital letter, and keeps the question mark inside the closing quotation mark. (For full correctness add a comma after the introductory clause: "When he saw the bird flying in the house, he got angry and demanded, 'Who left the door open?'")
