When did Sarah call Abraham "lord"?
score:12
The first verse that comes to my mind is in Genesis 18:12-
Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?
This is the only verse I can really remember in this context, and it is probably what Peter is referring to.

Peter is incorrect. When Abraham tried to ignore the situation, God spoke to Abraham and instructed him to listen to his wife. Because of this Hagar was driven off. God said man and woman would be one flesh. There are accounts in the bible where prudent women made better decisions than men did.

There is no documentation, in the story or Abraham and Saraha, that Saraha VERBALLY called Abraham, "lord."
"Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, which was behind him. 11Abraham and Sarah were already very old, and Sarah was past the age of childbearing. 12So Sarah laughed to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my lord is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
Sarah called Abraham "lord" in her "thoughts." Saraha verbally called Abraham "husband."

The answer is found in the Book of Jasher (referenced in Joshua 10:13 & 2nd Sammuel 1:18) where Sarah's prayer to God is recorded in Chapter 15:17. 1st Peter 3:6 is quoting from this verse.
