And yes, the correct form of language is “Mary and me” (IN the context of the sentence, as you recorded it on video)…YOU are correct!
A simple rule-of-thumb: When using pronouns, take one of “you” out of the sentence, and see if it “sounds” right.
“Mary and me” went on a walk is not correct (because “Me” went on a walk is not correct).
“I want to THANK you, on behalf of Mary and me….” IS correct.
(just two examples…it’s easy, once you get the pattern of ‘singular’ or “multiple”)…
Cheers.
