The second picture, (the green one) looks like a
classic color balance problem. You used film balanced
for daylight under a light that has a different
spectrum.
Flourescent gives a yellow tinge, and incandescant
gives a kind of sepia tone. I don't know what kind of
light would cause this extreme green shift though.
Actually, fluorescent usually causes a sickly greenish tone when
used with daylight film. I use a violet (FL) filter to deal with
the greenish cast, but it's not perfect. Fluorescent's just gross
light for film.

I agree. I don't use color negative film much, but the one time I
used Fuji Reala for snaps of people at the office I was really
pleased with the results. I read that Fuji uses an extra layer for
green compensation in some of their films. It does not add a color
cast, but seems to operate only when there is excess green. It seems
to help a lot.
