Right; it just performs the action of drawing a rectangle on the 
specified surface. Note, though, that according to:
http://pygame.org/docs/ref/draw.html#pygame.draw.rect
the function returns a Rect object (nearly the same thing as a 4-entry 
tuple) which you can ignore. If you really wanted to know where the rect 
was drawn, you could capture that return value like so:
spam = pygame.draw.rect(...)
print spam

In terms of it being "assigned to" something, it's a function of the 
pygame.draw module.
