Default FMQ: What am I supposed to do when...

I have a Brother PQ1500S, which I *love*. (Love, love, love!) I'm using it to FMQ a quilt I'm making for my stepson for Christmas. Every once in a while, it skips a stitch. I can see the thread go loose as it cycles through without pulling it through for that one stitch. So then I'm left with one stitch that is 2-3 times the length of most of the other stitches. Then I try to find creative ways to FMQ back to that spot so that I can stitch over it. But what am I supposed to do? What is the right thing to do? What would a professional quilter do? I want to learn best practices, and this board is my resource for that.
