I STRONGLY suggest you split your screen to do this one.

Explanation:
You're trying to decide whether to use I or me, he or him, she or her, etc.

• When there are two people, take out the other person to see what sounds right.
  Bob and I/me went to see the new “Star Wars” movie! 
  If you take out Bob, would you say "me went to see..." or "I went to see..."?
• Always put other people before “I” or “me.” 
  "Bob and I," not "I and Bob" 
• After prepositions (from, between, to, with, beside, etc.), use the "objective" form.  I put a list of SOME prepositions over to the right, but there are over  150 of them!
  He was surprised to get a birthday invitation from her.  
  Use "her" since it's after "from."
• Also use the objective form if something is being done to that person.
  He was surprised she invited him.  
  Use "him" since the 'inviting' is being done to him.
