Bad drive right / left on the hole running parallel to you. Equally bad 2nd shot, but on that shot the ball drops into the cup of the different hole. Whats the penalty / rule for this?

Actually to knock it in the hole is a great shot, just unlucky...Having said that, my understanding of the rules is that you are entitled to a free drop, nearest point of relief no closer to the hole, but off the green. You can also clean your ball if you want before the drop. So, no penalty and a free drop.

You would get free relief and drop the ball off the green, nearest point of relief no closer to the hole.

It's an unplayable, so that would be one shot. Not sure if you need a second penalty since you likely won't be able to drop within 2 club lengths. Or just treat as a lateral hazard and drop off the green no closer to the hole.

free drop off the green no nearer the hole
