I was vaguely puzzled by the “good capture” as well. The elevator moves aircraft nose down, followed by aircraft nose (rapidly) up. Then the timely go around. Perhaps they did leave the gear and flaps alone for wind shear.
Or perhaps they were just having a ‘little moment’ - when all of the normal words don’t come out of your mouth as coolly as they normally might. Because you’ve just had the bejesus scared out of you. As you know - it happens.
