Sandra, deaf from birth, attempts to restore her hearing by agreeing to submit to a new type of surgery whose goal it is to repair damaged hearing. The surgery seemingly fails and Sandra walks away feeling the same as before. However, at her job in a justice court, she realizes she's not the same as always- she has the ability to hear people's thoughts. In court, she realizes that one of the officers is actually the guilty party, having framed the defendant and stolen the missing money in question at the hearing. Unfortunately, no one believes her. Sandra, determined to prove the officer (Bruce Malone) guilty, uses her knowledge from listening in to sneak into Malone's cash stash. When Malone returns, Sandra is pressed to make it out alive. She also manages to pierce even deeper into Malone's mind, where she finds some unexpected news.
