2. In this case - an intermediate model can have multiple foreign keys to the source model. Here - two foreign keys to the same model are permitted - but they will be treated as the two (different) sides of the many-to-many relation.

3. Evaluates the QuerySet (by performing the query) and returns an iterator over the results. A QuerySet typically caches its results internally so that repeated evaluations do not result in additional queries; this method will instead read results dire
