Those 120w flood lights are trash, they put off wayy to much heat and not enough lumens for a single plant. Never buy grow lights from home depot unless they are cfl or flourescent (T5).
 
im not an advanced grower or anything but my last grow went smooth and when my plant was a seedling the lamp fell and burned the leaves and left only what can be seen in this image Img_121113160833.jpg and it grew quite nicely into this 8357451840_cd70a6d5d0_m.jpg but i cut it down early do to me moving
anyways my point is that you should just wait and see what happens if it dies then start over it might be a survivor so i think you should just leave it be and see what happens

First off, if you type like dis nobudeez gunna t&ke U cereal. Sombody may offer to throw a dictionary at your head though lol, spelling mistakes are just fine, nobody cares.
Ok, the situation sounds bad, you will probably need to replant unfortunatly. The one with the cotyledon, or cody leaves that fell off sounds like it was the lights fault. To much heat and light will roast the plants leaves right off. One cfl is all you need for seedlings. Also if you have those tube lights (floros) kicking around they work great in early development. Id uncover that unsprouted seed and see what the problem is if its dead toss it, but if it never left the seed coat you may want to change methods and try again :) good luck
