Looks like B to me.
It's actually D.
Bret is drawing the blueprint because he is not making duplicates of the original.
It's because in the question it states "approximate image" meaning that it won't be accurate and not done with tools. Therefore it leaves the other choices hanging because Troy constructed it.
