That does look like what it is doing. This is pretty rare but not impossible. This could be due to large temperature fluctuations, or some other stress. I do see what appears to be slug or snail slime trails and damage. This could explain the flowering to some extent. Keep an eye on fungal or bacterial infection, as well.
