1.On a dead ball, the runner can't go back to retouch if she's on a base beyond the one missed when the ball's dead.
In this case, I consider the dugout to be "the base beyond", and until she enters, she can try to beat the catcher back to the plate.

2. In a live ball appeal, if F2 reacts to the coach's yelling, and applies the tag or touches the plate, I'd consider that a valid appeal. If she wanders across & happens to touch HP, nothing... Don't know the fed rule on dead ball appeals (regarding non-players).
