Stylised illustration of a tea stall — Reena stands centre behind her counter looking up at a chalked flowchart on the back wall titled `TWO WAYS TO COPY A QUERY`. The flowchart shows an ORIGINAL chain of three step-boxes (Source, Cleaned, Output), a DUPLICATE chain below it that copies all three boxes identically in plum, and a single REFERENCE box on the right that says `= "Original"` with a curved live-link arrow pointing back up to the ORIGINAL's Output. On the far left a woman in plum holds a thick photocopied folder labelled `ALL STEPS`. On the far right a woman in soft grey holds a small slip with a curved string trailing offstage.
