Those are library methods. You probably won't have sources for them, but you can still access its properties or inspect private members if you have appropriate symbols for them. It also can be quite tedious to step through those chained methods, because the chain can be long. May be m$ debugger sucks, but it's nontrivial to step through methods called in single statement: it tends to step through the whole statement, though you can step-in and step-out.
