Hm, that first plant, could be ti, looks like dracaena to me. Whatever it was, I'm with ShadyGreenThumb on this one - it's a gonner.

The pothos is salvageable but it'll take some sustained effort. I've seen worse coaxed back into vigorous health, but certainly not overnight. If you're up for the challenge, start by cutting all the dead stuff off and leaving just the vines with green leaves, especially the ones closest to the base of plant. I assume it didn't get enough water and the soil is super dry? If so, give it a good soak in the sink. Most the water will run off the dried soil without soaking in, so it'll likely take several waterings to get the soil fully saturated. Once the soil has had a good drink, you can hang the plant back in its spot and put it on a weekly watering schedule. Good luck!
