One day, while the children are napping, a fire breaks out in the orphanage and Ann heroically saves Goldie from the flames.

Ann is immediately smitten with a neighbour boy named Jimmie Vance (Robert Harron) and the two youths begin courting.

Ann tentatively peers through the window and is shocked to see her neighbour, Bill Higgins (Charles Lee) lying on the floor.

But the wedding ceremony is not entirely a happy affair – Ann appears distracted and pensive throughout, leaving the viewer to wonder if she perhaps believes that the curse is still upon her.

[1] The Moving Picture World gave it an unenthusiastic review for its theatrical release: "'Hoodoo Ann' has some amusement and Mae Marsh is in it, but it is so obviously a manufactured story, the kind we write at the studio, that the initial characterization, very promising in its way, is lost sight of in the badly-arranged structure and an apparent abandonment of original purpose... Mae Marsh and an occasional bright subtitle may life the picture over, but it could not get far without their aid.
