Narrative:
First officer (first officer) landing on runway 1 with a slight tail wind. 40 flaps. First officer rounded out slightly high; got a little wing rock; and began settling. First officer flared as the plane touched down and skipped into the air. I caught the speed brake handle as it tried to deploy and said to go around. I put my right hand behind the throttles to ensure they were going forward. The throttles were locked in idle power. Tried again. Locked. I took the plane and landed in the remaining runway. I was not pleased. No idea why throttles were locked.
