A Correct answer
Explanation

“their squabbling” refers to Danny and Walter in sentence 1. So, B will be first in order. D mentions the first move, which definitely will follow after the game "Zathura". “to return home” will follow “their entire house in outer space”. So, C will follow D and A will end the sentence with the link between “realise what they mean to each other” and “realise that relationships never end”.
