I would assume the same way you ignore a passing of an OBS runner where that runner is ruled out an then brought back to life.
Missing a base is an exclusion to the "between two bases" protection, so an OBS must be given the opportunity to touch the base. Or is someone suggesting the trailing runner be forced to stop and wait until the OBS runner return to touch the plate?
IMJ, you let the OBS runner return and touch the plate and if challenged, cite 10.1
