Did R1 touch second and return or *touch and pass* second and return? If it's the former, no retouch is needed.

F8 drops the ball, R1 sees the drop and then turns and heads back to second and the throw from F8 to F6 beats him. I signal safe because I know he was safe the first time he hit the bag.

Doesn't matter. Once he returned, he reinstated the force (the retouch -- or lack thereof -- has no bearing on this). You should have had an out right here.
