Kelli's powers of telekinesis, and her ability to speak to and understand inanimate objects has often seemed to mess things up, including causing her father to desert her and her mother; but now he is trying to get back into her life, and she is torn between anger, resentment, and maybe hope, emotions that are not improved when he immediately dumps her off at a tennis day camp, where one of the older girls seems to want to humiliate her--a situation that leads her to use her powers (with the enthusiastic assistance of her tennis ball and racket) to retaliate, and ultimately causes her to blow-up at her neglectful father.
