Q3 If the runner on first misses 3B, how many runs score?

We'll assume that the proper appeal is made and the missed bag represents the third out.

Thanks.
1. 3 -- R1, R2 and R3 all crossed the plate before the third out.

2. 3 -- same reasoning

3. 2 -- R2 and R3 score, but BR's run doesn't count because he was "behind" the runner who made the third out.
