2. Shooting (and perhaps scoring)
3. Going back through the outer works
4. Collecting another boulder
5. Crossing the outer works for a third time
6. Shooting (and perhaps scoring)

I don't mean to be a pessimist, but I have strong doubts anyone's going to try to do that in 15 seconds.
Many teams will *try* to have a two-boulder autonomous. Some will succeed. Of this, I am absolutely certain. No, it will not be easy.
