>that her mother is irritated

no, only that she sounds irritated, we have to assume there was information we were not party to that the girl was.

That could be right. If we imagine that to be a screenplay, then the intent is that the actress portraying the mother sound irritated. It's not necessarily the intent that the daughter character is picking up on the irritation; it's an effect for the audience.
