Visible crew/equipment: While Annie, Miss Hannigan, and the inspector are in the bathroom, just as Annie says, "Bye, Mr Inspector," right above Miss Hannigan's hand we can see in the mirror's reflection that something dips into view, presumably the boom mic.

Answer: In earlier versions of the "Annie" story, she is orphaned when her parents are killed in a car accident. In the musical, they died in a fire. In the 2014 re-imagining, Annie lives in foster care after being abandoned by her family. Early on, she hopes to one day be reunited with them. We, the audience, never learn their whereabouts, nor whether they are alive or dead.
