Theseus

In this dialogue, Andreas is trying to guess what an object is. A sort of game of 20 questions. My question is simple and I'm sure it can be simply answered. It is from an excellent site, called kypros.org, from which I am learning to speak Greek. Thanks to this site, I am making very good and quick progress.
But I'm not sure why the sentece can carry the meaning it actually does:
Α. Τι είναι, Έλλη; Τι το κάνουμε;
Ε. Το ακούμε.
Α. Το ακούμε; Το ακούω τώρα;
Ε. Όχι, τώρα δεν το ακούς.
Α. Α, νομίζω είναι ένα γραμμόφωνο.
Ε. Όχι.
Presumably it means 'what do we do with it?' Shouldn't it have a με before το?
