Sanji doesn't know what's happening to Luffy right now. He can do his best to help save Luffy, but obviously can't do everything humanly possible since Luffy got himself into this situation. While Luffy is certainly on Sanji's mind, his focus is on someone whom he can save far more realistically, someone with no idea what's going on: Zeff. Luffy's not out of the question, but is of course going to be far trickier.

Up until now, Sanji wouldn't be able to curry favor with Big Mom at all; I doubt he even met her until right now. Right now, he is pretty much a belligerent prisoner and it would make no sense for Mom to relax the bonds on him until he does something BIG to prove his loyalty - like formally agreeing to marry Purin, for example...

What would you have wanted Sanji to do that fits his character and makes complete sense in terms of the story?
