Draw the tetrahedral intermediate as it is first formed in the following reaction. I keep getting it wrong. 

### Educational Content on Acyl Transfer Reactions

**Acyl transfer (nucleophilic substitution at carbonyl) reactions** proceed in two stages via a "tetrahedral intermediate." The task is to draw the tetrahedral intermediate **as it is first formed** in the following reaction:

**Reaction Components:**

- **Reactants:**
  - An acyl chloride with a benzene ring (phenyl group) attached to a carbonyl group (C=O) and a chlorine atom.
  - A compound containing an amine group (NH₂) and an alcohol group (OH).

- **Reaction Arrow:** Indicates the progression from reactants to products through the formation of an intermediate.

**Instructions:**

- **Stereochemistry:** 
  - You do not have to consider stereochemistry for this task.

- **Valence Lone Pairs:**
  - Include all valence lone pairs in your drawing of the tetrahedral intermediate.

- **Counter-Ions:**
  - Do not include counter-ions such as Na⁺ or I⁻ in your answer.

- **Multiple Possible Answers:**
  - If there is more than one possible answer for the intermediate, draw only one.

**Diagrams and Tools:**
- Below the instruction text, various tool icons are visible which may be used for drawing chemical structures, indicating bonds, and incorporating lone pairs into diagrams.

### Note:
It is important to understand the mechanism of acyl transfer reactions and be able to illustrate intermediates, as they play a crucial role in organic synthesis. Accurate depiction of lone pairs and structural changes is essential for mastering reaction mechanisms.
