An indirect object doesn't ask, an indirect object tellswho or what gets the direct object. Example:
Let's buy some flowers. What will we buy? Flowers, the direct object of the verb buy.
Let's buy mom some flowers. What will we buy? Flowers, the direct object. And, who gets the direct object (flowers)? Mom gets the flowers; mom is the indirect object.
An indirect object can follow the verb, coming before the direct object; or the indirect object can be the object of a preposition: Let's buy some flowers for mom.
