Is it D?

No, not D.

I was stuck between C and D. So it's D.

Neither C nor D is correct.

That's two incorrect. Please don't post about this again. Thanks.

Yes, the correct answer is D: "Jimmy, you must leave the room, shut the door, and be quiet." This option correctly punctuates the sentence by including a comma after "Jimmy" to address him directly, and by using commas to separate the actions ("leave the room," "shut the door," and "be quiet"). The use of the word "and" before the last action is appropriate for listing multiple actions in the sentence.
