Question about Tom's cake.

Hi Teachers,

Could you tell me if it is possible the indirect and direct question that I wrote according to the text?

This Sunday morning, Susan's husband, Tom, is going to surprise her by baking her a chocolate cake while she is at her parents' house.

Ask and answer how Tom is going to surprise Susan.

By baking her a cake.

Thanks in advance

Aren't the bold and underlined words an indirect question? 'Ask and answer how Tom is going to surprise Susan'.
