It was obvious to many people that the stock price would rebound significantly after Musk settled with the SEC, so the stock had already effectively increased in price before market open. Robinhood couldn't find anyone willing to sell you shares at the market close price Monday morning because there were none to be had.

The settlement news came out earlier - Friday’s news was Musk’s punishment, which was light. But thanks for the reminder that stock prices are not numbers on an app, in my rage/greed I forgot how markets operate.
