Well the recipients of those comments found them quite patronizing and condescending as well, so your take on the matter is irrelevant.

Jim didn't 'send Luisa to ask'. He told Luisa that if she wanted to know, then she'd have to ask Linda herself. There is a subtle difference there, and I think that is why Jim initially denied Linda's first accusations - because she wasn't actually getting it right.

Since you cannot read minds, you cannot tell if the recipients of these comments found them patronising and conscending or not, because they didn't say. However, the only people who'd find such innocuous comments to be patronising or condescending would be people who have an enormous chip on their shoulder, or an inferiority complex.
