He had just taken a seat in his chair at his console--not the captain's chair. There was no logic in sitting there now, he had calculations and data to analyze in his desperate search for Jim--but also because he knew that the seat was not his rightful place. Acting captain or not, it was still Jim's one seat on the bridge, his throne of power. And Spock didn't want to intrude on it just yet in his absence.
Also, he had not told the rest of the ship that the captain had mysteriously disappeared. To take that seat would hint at...the situation. And for now he had no answers if someone asked.
Then the communication. Couldn't McCoy wait at least an hour before panicking, give him some time to find Jim before he started yelling...?
He took the communication at his station. "Yes, McCoy?"
