The sir turns Kyle's expression briefly serious. He likes Jim's crew. They're sweet people and there's not a lot he wouldn't do for them, even if he didn't know Jim personally.
But seeing this - he's reminded of what he and Jim have in common, and sometimes that isn't really a good thing.
However, he cheers up when he sees Chekov searching. He knows the look of someone who prefers formal wear (he's friends with Spock) and he immediately picks out something that looks uniformish while having enough colour variety to look pretty stylish.
