In the Edit Query window, can I see what a certain step did?

Hi everyone,

 

I have the feeling the answer is 'no', but here it goes.

 

I have added certain steps into the query, but for the life of me I can't figure out which rows are being filtered in this second step in the image. The dataset is huge in both number of rows and columns, and visually there's no way I can figure it out.

Thank you in advance, community!
