Although I didn't do this, I don't think there is anything to stop you from completing the first touchstone, improving it, and submitting the second one the same day.  In fact, I suspect this is the only way you'll get this completed by June 30, if it's possible at all.

Just make sure your second effort is more polished and careful than the second.  The submissions don't exactly need to be Hollywood quality.  Vary the tone and cadence of your speech, make eye contact, gesture occasionally for emphasis, and use a simple visual aid...I used a single 8.5 x 11" monochrome chart, printed on ordinary copy paper and placed in a clear sheet protector...and you should be fine.

It does stop you from submitting at the same time. I tried several times since my deadline was approaching. Once the first touchstone is graded it unlocks the next touchstone.  

I recorded both and wore different color shirt and used different props and ad libbed a bit more and stopped saying ummmm.

So I guess I did learn something (don't say ummm).
Nice course and absorbed more than I expected.
