The correct answer as to which pronoun best completes the sentence and how the pronoun is used is D. me; indirect object.
In a sentence where there are two objects, where one is direct, and the other one indirect, the rule is that the first object that will be written in the sentence is the indirect, and it will be followed by a direct object.
