It's definitely not allowable to T the assistant if calling a TO is really all the assistant did. (Although I could imagine a situation where the calling of the TO by the asst is sort of the capper to a developing unsportsmanlike display.) The ref should just ignore the request. But once you "kill it" and thereby grant the TO, you just have to go with it. You can't get away with starting play again as if it were an inadvertant whistle (there is no such thing as an inadvertant time out.)
As far as the travel goes, I'd skip it, if my partner would let me.
