Does get() Parse query result do another db call?

Question

When I do .find() or first() on Parse (cloud-code or otherwise) and get a results objects. If I then do .get(fieldName) on the result object does that do another db call and hence needs further asynchronous handling? Or is the data now local? If so, how can I introspect the results object in the console without using .get()

Note I'm using the JavaScript

No, it's local or it doesn't exist (if you specified to only find certain keys and you request a different one) so there is no additional network / database request.

Ah so what kind of object structure comes back? Why can't I introspect the fields of the results in the console? Or how?

Parse objects appear to be effectively a dictionary, that's why you have to use get instead of having direct access to the keys

I'm confused because that's not how in used to dealing with Json... Json is effectively s dict

yes, this isn't like JSON objects (plain objects), it's a specific object with a provided API
