Not having seen that particular episode I can't comment on it specificially, however in my pilot training, one thing CASA always drummed into the training was:

Aviate, then navigate, then communicate.

When we did shock reaction testing in flight training, some people froze solid for 12 seconds before the brain kicked back into gear again, assessed all the information in front of them, then they went back to flying. 12 seconds is a very long time for an out of control plane...
