It is hard to describe the plot of Ann's Finish, since even the filmmakers didn't seem to know what was going on. As near as can be determined, Ann (Margarita Fisher), daughter of a lumber baron, is packed off to boarding school in the Big City. Here she meets a wealthy young man (Jack Mower) who appears to be an amateur burglar. When the cops show up, Ann saves the young fellow by claiming to be his wife. It takes several reels, and a thrilling episode in which the heroine is captured by real burglars, before Ann learns the real name and the true motives of her "instant husband." At one point, a subtitle is flashed on the screen, asking the filmgoers if they could guess what would happen to Ann next. More than likely, the answer was a resounding "Darned if we know!"
