C

Explanation:

The sentence in the option C is a correctly punctuated sentence because the writer is expressing a plan or desire, which is to see certain movie again, and bring a friend, but he or she interrupts the flow of the thought to state some uncertainty concerning which day (it could be next Friday); in this case the use of commas before and after "perhaps next Friday" is correct.
