Can't close thumbnail in Mission Control

I open Mission Control up, have a few desktops and full-screen apps open. However, when I hover my cursor over a thumbnail, no 'X' appears. How do I close a thumbnail in Mission Control?

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

Newly opened Desktops should show the X when you hover over. Full screens apps no.

Try in terminal, copy and paste:

killall Dock

this will force mission control to restart.

Hold the Option key down and the x will appear.
