A bit of clarification might be in order here.
Even if you have tickets for both Monday tapings, you cannot receive priority numbers for both tapings. You have to choose only one taping to go to. If you want to even have a chance to see both tapings, obviously, you should have your tickets for the earlier taping numbered.
If there aren't enough people in the audience for the second taping, they'll know it while the first taping is taking place. So before the audience is dismissed from the first taping, an announcement will be made telling them that seats are available for the second taping. If that's the case, then when it's time to leave, you rush out the door, knocking over anybody who may be in your way, and quickly get in a special line. After all of the standby ticket holders are counted, they'll give contestant numbers to as many first-taping people as they can squeeze in.
Shameless plug: I'm working on a "So you're going to TPiR" report for golden-road.net, detailing
everything that happens to potential contestants. It's still in draft form, but if you're interested in reading it, it's currently at
