Characters

 * Kelly had this power until she sold it. Her power was developed by her personality of wanted to know what others think about her.

Usage
Kelly first shows to have this power hours after being struck by the storm. This happens when she overhears Alisha criticizing her appearance. Kelly seems to hear thoughts only from people around her (and that she is watching) and mostly when the thoughts are precise and strong enough, as she doesn't hear pepole thinking all the time. Hearing what others think doesn't make her know everything about these people: though she heard Bruno's mind many times, she couldn't know he was a gorilla, since he didn't think it directly. Kelly cannot "turn off" her power and is, thus, subject to people's thoughts whether she like sit or not, to her misfortune. Simon suggested using a tinfoil hat to "block" thoughts, but this proved to be unsuccessful.

As Kelly soon discovers, the power is not limited to adult humans; she was able to overhear the thoughts of animals, including her dog, a gorilla, and a baby. The animals were able to speak coherent English sentences, suggesting that the bearer of the power translates the thoughts into his or her own languages.

Kelly sold this power to Seth during Christmas for $20,000 and subsequently got the power of technological aptitude for double the price.
