Answer:

D. to develop the relationship between the old man and the boy.

Explanation:

This is the statement that best describes why the author included both of these scenes in the story. In this text, the author draws a clear relationship between the old man and the boy. While the old man seems unsettled, the boy seems completely unconcerned by the conversation that just took place. These shows the two people occupy very different roles in the household.

In media res is when a character is dropped in the middle of action, and that being the beginning of the story.  A flash forward is something that is shown in the story out of chronological order, usually for dramatic effect or irony. Episodic plot structures are much like TV show episodes, following a rising action-climax -rising action-climax pattern. I believe the answer you are looking for is Parallel Plot Structure. :)
