Welcome April! and Sig!
I agree the first plant is dead.
The second plant, I would only take cuttings and discard the rest. If you absolutely have to have a plant for free, it will live. But it'll be a slow process. And you'l have to figure out and correct what killed it.
I would really recommend you just toss it all and go get a small new pothos for a few bucks, and start with a healthy new plant. Pothos is common. Any Home depot or walmart should have it.
