Yes - always think of the interpreter like a text caret skipping thru the 
program, statement by statement, from top to bottom. It interprets 'class' and 
'def', but it only parses what's inside the def, and stores it. The interpreter 
can't even see the inner 'too()' (except as lexically correct tokens). Only when 
you call 'one()' does the interpreter go back inside and this time actually 
execute its lines.
