However, upon looking closely in the original source file, there seem to be no whales falling under Pod D0-C59 (Beluga) based on the output of the second Join tool. However, after the summarization tool, Pod D0-C59 appeared in the summary which I could not find out why it appeared suddenly and where did it came from. See below:

Summarize input showing no Pod D0-C59:

Can you help me explain this?

Great challenge - learned a few things with this one - how to round via the formula tool and the count of distinct value (got me on my first go - I was not counting distinct IDs but just doing an overall count).
