That's because "run script" doesn't launch the script like an application... it just loads and calls it as a subroutine of the current applet (like any other handler in your script). You have to save the second script as a stand-alone applet and tell the Finder to Run it (or Re-run it, or Open it, or Launch it, depending on which top level handler in that second script you wish to invoke).
