Default Oyster Questions

Currently on vacation in London and doing some railfanning, and I had
some questions about my Oyster usage after today's travels, especially
on number 2 since I would like my penalty fare taken off if at all
possible.

1. When does it implement the price cap? Overnight or as I travel
during the day?

2. I had this happen to me today: At 19:42, as a two hour ride was
ending, I touched out at Baker Street, and immediately touched back in
at 19:43 (I got these times from a vending machine after I discovered
this and I had it pull up my trip history). At 21:20 or so, I exited
at Leichster Square, having gone to Moorgate, Farrington, and then out
to Walthamstow in the meantime, and was charged 4 GBP. I was also
charged 4 GBP for the trip starting at Baker Street that supposedly
never ended. Any idea what happened here? Any way of getting my
money back?

Thanks, in advance, I'll also take any suggestions for photo spots
worth checking out anywhere on the Underground or DLR.
