Help With Line Effect

[Matt Sk]

Hi Everyone! 

I have attached a .png for reference. I am trying to replicate this line effect, (going from one line and breaking into several to point to various points) in illustrator. I have tried figuring out of on my own with no success unfortunately. I feel like I'm missing something.

Thank you all for your time.
