If I want to get a train from Waterloo to Southampton and then return later
that day from Brighton, can I get a return ticket that will allow this? The

The return part of a London to Southampton return ticket is valid via
Brighton, so you should be able to use it to just travel from Brighton
to Victoria.

There might be an even cheaper way of doing it by "excessing" a
ticket, but I don't really know how that works.
