Same thing on the second scenario also.
That's how I would have reasoned and ruled. Enlighten me please.

In FED you can't return if you are at/beyond the next base from your last legally touched base at the time the ball went dead.
In OBR you cannot return if you touch the next base beyond where you physically were after the ball went dead.
