Would something like this help?
Rank TC Parent City 2 = RANKX( ALL( 'Table'[Parent and TC City], 'Table'[Parent Org] ), [Monthly Lines] )It seems to work in both of your scenarios.
Let me know how this works.

It is because when you are including Parent Org, the context is getting changed. To avoid the context change you can use a table in your Rank Dax by cross joining the 'Parent and TC City' and 'Parent Org'. I have verified it and it gives the correct result.
My Dax looks like
Rank TC Parent City = RANKX(CROSSJOIN(ALL('Table'[Parent and TC City]),ALL('Table'[Parent Org])),[Monthly Lines])You can also refer the below youtube video for understanding:Hope it helps! - lbendlin
