He did the same thing when Kirk's phaser falls off his belt when Kirk breaks into Khan's sleeper pod in "Space Seed".
Hey, I never noticed that before....

Heh. I'll have to keep an eye out for that. You can see a similar reaction from Kelley when Kirk's phaser falls off of his belt as he smashes Khan's chamber open in "Space Seed." You can then see Kelley's eyes dart back and forth to the floor as he tries to locate the prop as the chamber slides open, and then finally he discretely picks it up to save the take.
Come to think of it, the complications involved with the sleeper ship bed must have been the reason they didn't do another take on that scene. Why bother replacing the prop glass when the phaser thing was hardly noticeable anyway?
His clinch fisted action pose explained.
In the end credits of "The Immunity Syndrome," I'd never noticed the still of an android in "Return To Tomorrow" that wasn't used in the episode, until last night.

Yes, that's Bill Blackburn covered in latex. I believe it was test footage.
Phasers fall off of belts all the time, the galaxy is an imperfect place.
Damn Vulcan velcro.
Yeah. You'd think Starfleet would work on that. Phasers are not things you want to leave lying around accidentally, or not have when you need them.
"Something the matter, Bones?"
"Good God, man, am I the only one who notices these things!?!"
It's a good thing Velcro wasn't introduced to Earth by the Vulcanians.
Bad retroenzo. Bad!

I bet that if they did it now, you wouldn't see a thing.
I'm assuming it's a roundabout way of saying "I didn't like Enterprise". Or maybe only episodes that use term "Vulcanians" are True Trek™.
Bill played the android body that Sargon, Henoch and Thalassa were going to be downloaded into and you can see him lying on the bed when they move his plastic arm in the episode!

Also, I believe this is the makeup being ripped off Bill's face in the blooper where the makeup guying is saying, "Dammit, kid, you wanted show business, you got it!"
Bill got to do all sorts of interesting things onboard the Enterprise. My favorite was in "Truth/Beauty" where Larry Marvik exits a turbolift just as Bill is going to enter. Marvik flattens him with a punch. Poor Bill.
They did this throughout the series. The worst it looked to me was in that non-existent finale with Riker and Troi. The actor's smile was broad enough. Using CG to enlarge it just looked silly.
