Runner on second base. Batter hits ground ball. Runner on second takes off to 3rd. Defense tries to throw that Runner out on the tag play at 3rd. Ball gets lost and goes into the dugout.
The batter running to first runs through first base and comes right back to first base and stands on 1st base. Zero intent to turn to go to second base.
Just stands on first base bag.
Because the ball went into the dugout...the Umpire immediately steps forward and says
'dead ball that's two bases' and puts his hand up in the air signaling two fingers, brings the runner from third home.
But then...
he takes the runner who's standing on First Base and moves her all the way over to Third.
