When a new gadget shows up on Lost, odds are that its presence is dubious at best. Those touchscreen satellite phones by the new other Others, Other-controlled ultrasound machines — if technology shows up on this island, you have good reason to be freaked out by it. I'm already scared of who the new foursome with those iPhone-lookalikes are contacting, and I think I have good reason to be: One of them is a ghostbuster! New character Miles has one of the scariest backstories in Lost history — he's some kind of a ghost-whisperer! Apparently spirit hunters like Miles need more than just their mind control though. He busted out this wacky ghost-busting gadget in a scene illustrating his talents:
Is anyone else thinking what I am? That this looks freakishly like the Dirt Devil I kept in my car in high school?!

This show makes NOOOOO SENSE.
1Wow, weird.
2I kind of think he just used that thing to make noise so the ghost's mom couldn't hear him asking where the money was!
3this is one of my new favorite episodes!
4i don't watch this show...
5but that is a scary...dust buster thing
Lost is an amazing show! I got hooked last summer when my boyfriend and I watched all three seasons on dvd and iTunes (Season 3 wasn't out on dvd then).
Miles is weird, but I thought the dust buster thing was just his way of keeping his clients from hearing him talk in normal conversational tones to the ghosts. Also, it was a noise and they'd probably expect there to be some gadget.
6yeah i think it was just covering up for his clients. so they think he's doing something from the noise. but i guess he's not a fake. i wish it was more like the Ghost Traps from 'Ghostbusters'
7I agree with the comments about it just being a decoy gadget. I think the gadget was fake and just helped him with his sells. I doubt many people would fork over $200 to some guy with no gear or proof that he could "ghostbust".
8It reminds me of those Compact Disc scratch removal devices combined with a Shark Hand Vacuum.
I thought Miles had made himself is own Ghostbusters spirit capture box minus the nuclear fission business.
9LOL, it looks like a mini vacuum.
10you kept a dirt devil in your car? huh... that never would have even occurred to me.
11I thought he was just tryin to scam that poor old lady with that dirt devil thingy...still dont believe it does anything.
