Outlet 1 Outlet 2

Are these statements correct using the above simple MW circuit?

If you lose the neutral and have a lamp plugged into Outlet 1 and
nothing in Outlet 2 the lamp won’t work.

If you lose the neutral and have a lamp plugged into Outlet 1 you will
have the potential of 220V at Outlet 2.
