It seems like you are trying to explain two concepts, but aren't explicit about it.First compound subjects take plural verb forms: Sarah et ma soeur sont allées à la plage.
Second the subject pronoun changes form from its singular usage:
je --> moi
tu --> toi
Vous avez raison. Quel bonne historie!
« Un billet aller » is not being listed as a correct option for 'one-way ticket' but should be. There are several choices given for using « aller simple », which implies this is the only correct term.

Tôt is wrong to say you are early today? Why?
If you were to say something such as "after eating, I will go for a walk," are you required to use the anterior future and repeat "je" twice, or is it somehow possible to incorporate an infinitive like this (Être allé manger, perhaps?).
Hi Aurélie,
I notice a few people have asked the same question about the sentence - Tu lui as parlé' being translated as 'You talked to her' but parlé not agreeing with a feminine ‘lui’. You have said that the past participle doesn’t agree with an indirect object pronoun, and refer people to the advanced lesson: Special cases where the past participle agrees... However that lesson only talks about direct object pronouns and doesn’t actually say that the past participle doesn’t agree with an indirect object pronouns. I wondered if - for completeness and clarity - you could add that to the lesson, if it is not covered elsewhere. Many thanks.
