Everything is penalized in order, but A1 is erroneously given a 1-and-1. Then we shoot 10 more free throws for the Ts. We've now had 10 live balls and dead balls. But since the clock hasn't started following the error, the original error is still correctable and we can give A1 the second free throw that he was entitled to.

I understand my error by using become live instead of "clock properly started". How about for kicks in the OP we say that on the first missed free throw try, the clock operator failed to start the clock on the rebound and putback? Now we have a 'fine kettle of fish!'
