Word order for subordinate questions

I know subordinate questions have no inversion. Should this sentence:





"Do you know what are the good things to do around here?"




be





  1. "Do you know what the good things are to do around here?"





MS Word's grammar check gives me,





  1. "Do you know what the good things to do around here are?"





But at least to my ear, the first seems the one most commonly said. Is the first one wrong? Which one is the best?
