Here's what I did: Flex became an Illegal Substitute for the 1 hole batter by batting improperly. The 1 hole batter has now left the game and is re-entered by coach. The Flex is DQ'd for the game. The 3rd out stands. The correct batter when this team comes back to bat is the 2 hole batter.

Did I get everything covered?
I don't think this is the way I'd have called this but yours seems reasonable.

The flex cannot legally enter for the 1st batter, but could have legally entered for the 6th batter. I'd call this an unreported legal substitution out of order. I know there's a priority statement in the book, but not having it in reach I can't remember which way it goes. The DP has left the game, and the BOO is appealed so the 2 batter is correctly due up.
Besides changing which coach I'm going to be giving an explanation too, what else says that's not the way to do it.
