Just use your creative as you would in Portuguese.
Anyhow, May I suggest some minor changes?
b) Marcy urgently told me to get out of these... (Same as above)
c) An impatient Bart asked... I soothingly told him we have... (Same as above)
You can do it with a few adjectives... and adverbs. "Mr. Burton said treateningly..." or you could tweak it a little bit more by recasting the sentences to conform to your own words...
"Mr. Burton threatened: 'Go ahead...'"
"An angry Mr. Burton said..."
"Marcy urged me to get out of..." (?)
"Marcy urged me out of..." (?)
"Bart demanded where... I replied: 'Do we have a name for that?'"
You could write a book on it alone.
