Okay, people, get ready for a grammar lesson because Fio is sick and tired of hearing people messing up when it comes to objective pronouns. This is how it works: the subject pronouns I, we, he, she, and they change to the forms me, us, him, her and them when they are direct objects, indirect objects, or objects of the preposition. And if there is a second pronoun, IT ALSO USES THE OBJECTIVE FORM.
Mary saw me Mary gave me the book Mary gave the book to me
Mary saw us Mary gave us the book Mary gave the book to us Mary saw him Mary gave him the book Mary gave the book to him
Mary saw her Mary gave her the book Mary gave the book to her
Mary saw them Marry gave them the book Mary gave the book to them
AND
Mary saw me and/or us/him/her/them
Mary saw us and/or me/him/her/them.
Mary saw him and/or me/us/her/them.
Mary saw her and/or me/us/him/them.
Mary gave them and/or me/us/him/her.

Mary gave the book to him and/or me/us/her/them.
