The baby throws the lollypop outside the window, look for it in area where Prince is playing.

I'm not familiar with the Simon code so this may be really obvious, but just for the record it's vc_22_set_pal() that changes the palette. I assume the purpose of this function is to update the global palette with a sprite's local palette, but in this case it doesn't look anywhere near sensible. If I prevent this palette change, the scene looks fine.

But I have no idea how to fix this properly.

I suspect issue 2 could be another possible race condition, similar to ones that causes brief freezes in simon1/2dos. The timing of Simon 1/2 in ScummVM is off in ScummVM, compared to the original games. Now that Simon 2 music is working right it is much easier to see the timing problems in general.

Problem 2 was just fixed by jamieson630, it was due to incorrect code in vc_3_new_sprite.
