Walk over to their desk and look for post-it notes attached to the monitor.
Failing that you probably have to ask them.

As I understand it, you cannot "reverse-engineer" a password from within
Oracle.  The common workaround scripts available store the encrypted
password in a temporary table, change the password, let you connect and
then copy the encrypted password back when complete.  This might be ok
depending on what you need to do.  But why would you need their password
anyway?
