When Pony is coming back from the movies, he realizes he is alone. His first mistake is that he didn't stop to wait for Darry, Sodapop, or one of the gang members to go with him to the movies.

:
a. secretly flattered by Mrs. Turner's suggestion.
b. questioning her relationship with Mrs. turner.
c. devoted to Tea Cake and unaffected by Mrs. turner's opinions.
d. angry at Tea Cake for secretly listening in on her conversation.
Answer:
We can reasonably infer that Janie is:
c. devoted to Tea Cake and unaffected by Mrs. turner's opinions.
Explanation:
Janie and Tea Cake are characters in Zora Neale Hurston's novel "Their Eyes Were Watching God". The main character is an African-American woman named Janie, whose life has been defined by her race and gender.
Janie is very clear that Mrs. Turner is barking up the wrong tree. After two marriages, Janie finally met Tea Cake, her third husband. Although readers may easily see this marriage as being far from perfect, it is indeed what Janie always dreamed of. She is loyal to Tea Cake, and has not intention of leaving him for another man. Mrs. Turner's opinions have no effect over Janie.
