You can eliminate two options because they could never be correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay that would be...C and D?

OpenStudy (larseighner):

When can "I" be an object of any kind?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well i'm kinda confused on the difference between direct and indirect

OpenStudy (larseighner):

Okay. "I" can NEVER be an object of any kind.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh okay.

OpenStudy (larseighner):

Between C and D, I'd say D. You cannot quite insert "ro" or "for" before "Joe and me" and still have a good English sentence. You should be able to do that if it is an indirect object.

OpenStudy (larseighner):

*to

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay.

Thanks
