This grammar point is labelled incorrectly. I can show you how to these products is not an indirect question - it's not even a question, its a declarative statement. Are people really teaching indirect questions for this key sentence?
@SamuelSmith, I am reading that it is considered an "interrogative content clause" (also called, "indirect question") which is a subcategory of noun clauses. It is so confusing because I am seeing conflicting information and I have no guidance on how to teach this properly.
@SamuelSmith in the book it's labelled as "interrogative words" 疑問詞 (gimon shi) - both KS 17 & 18. Whether I agree with the textbook or not, I just follow what the book/JTE want.

@SamuelSmith Yes, because the textbook teaches indirect questions within the same Scene 2 (mini activity -- "Do you know where to buy them?")
