Good try, Jaquelyn, but your second sentence doesn't seem to make a change, and your third confuses the indirect object with the direct object.
Logan, you also confused the direct object and the indirect object.
Taylor, you changed the indirect object both times and then failed to maintain your changes with each sentence.
Here is an example:
1. subject noun = The manager grudgingly offered the angry customer a small discount.
2. direct object noun= The manager grudgingly offered the angry customer a small gift.
3. indirect object noun = The manager grudgingly offered the angry client a small gift.
