  I became angry at what she said, I carried her while she was intoxicated, and I threw her into the oven.

  فَغَضِبْتُ — So I became angry. The prefixed fa- opens the consequence, 'and so I grew angry', tying the rage to her curse as its trigger. The verb is past tense with the -tu 'I'. This same connective threads the next several verbs together, building the runaway chain of actions that follows.
