Corrected entry: Right after Annie sings "Maybe" you can see Molly tossing around, when she does this she throws a clean stuffed animal horse to the ground. If they are in a grungy orphanage in 1933 with Miss Hanigan, who doesn't "care for them a smidge when they're in an orphanage", why would Molly have a clean stuffed animal?

Question: Question regarding the search for Annie's parents: When Mr. Warbucks launches the nationwide search for Annie's parents using the best legal and investigative minds of the day, should they not have discovered that said parents died in a fire? The authorities somehow knew there was an abandoned child and where to send the parents' "junk", and Miss Hannigan was informed of the deaths. Obviously, someone knew Annie was at the orphanage and whose child she was. How did Warbucks' top notch team of private eyes miss that?
Answer: Miss Hannigan's box of Annie's parents' things might have the only record of her birth certificate. This is the 1930s, after all. Paper records went missing all the time.

Correction: Stuffed animals, even if they're in a dusty house actually can last awhile. I still have stuffed animals from when I was a baby that have never been cleaned and theres not a speck on them.
