Definitely it was odd. I figure if they had a full season. It might have made more sense. There really was no set up. So, I hope they can make it make sense come September or whenever the show comes back.
Gibbs tends to know more than we think he does. So, it was possible he knew Ellie was training and while the others was oblivious to it, and so he knew she had reached the crossroads where you do have to make the choice. Especially given she asked if his choice was worth it.
Rewatches tend yes to clarify things you do not immediately pick up.
This was the start of the story. So, hopefully it makes sense in the end. And we still have Gibbs mystery also...
