Consecutive collision orbits in the limiting case mu = 0 of the elliptic restricted three-body problem are investigated, in particular those in which the infinitesimal mass collides twice with the smaller (massless) primary. A timing condition is presented that allows the extension of previous results to the case of arbitrary relative orientation of the orbits of the infinitesimal mass and the smaller primary. The timing condition is expressed in two general forms - in terms of orbit parameters and eccentric (or hyperbolic) anomalies at the times of collision - for the specific cases of elliptic, parabolic or hyperbolic orbits of the infinitesimal mass. Some families of solutions are presented.
