If the BR misses first, touches second base and realizes then that first base was missed, too bad. Cant happen. Please apply this comment to your scenarios and figure out the outcome. I dont wanna make this too long!
Really? Where in the rule book did you find this? Please cite the rule or case book play which supports that statement.

To the contrary, a runner can retrack to touch a missed base, or retouch one left too soon on a caught fly, as long as they also retouch any intermediate bases. Good play.
