what does the underlined sentence reveal about ruthies relationship to reggie?

Explanation:

The underlined sentence shows Ruthie defends Reggie sharply when Sparrow uses a teasing nickname for him. She loudly corrects Sparrow and asserts Reggie's full proper name, which signals she is familiar with him, cares about his dignity, and has a close, protective relationship with him. Reggie's glare is playful irritation, not genuine anger, confirming their comfortable, friendly dynamic.

Answer:

The underlined sentence reveals that Ruthie has a close, protective relationship with Reggie: she defends his dignity by sharply correcting Sparrow's teasing nickname, using his full proper name loudly, showing she cares about how he is addressed, and their easy, familiar dynamic is further confirmed by Reggie's playful glare in response.
