The foster kids' names from eldest to youngest are: Isabella (age 13), Pepper (age 12), Annie (age 11), Tessie (age 11), and Mia (age 9). Pepper and Kate are the only orphans who wear accessories: Pepper wears a hat while Kate wears glasses. July is the only Asian orphan.
Annie was abandoned as an infant because she was the child of an affair between a Marleyan woman and an Eldian man. Left near the gates of the Liberio Internment Zone, a different Eldian man took her in and raised her to be a Warrior so that he could have a cushy life as an Honorary Marleyan.
The next morning Grace suggests to Warbucks he adopts Annie although initially he refuses; he sees how much Grace wants to have Annie to stay and agrees to adopt her.
She tells him his secret is safe with her. Will later asks Grace what it would take to properly adopt Annie. That's when Guy comes in and says that Annie's real parents have been found. Annie is happy, though Will is visibly sad.
