Who says I always end up thinking the mantra a second time?
Sometimes I realize that 20 minutes have gone by lost in thought, and
that's the end of my meditation.

Not being a teacher of TM but just a common /practitioner/, I think you
have to remember to begin the mantra at least once during a meditation.
Otherwise you'd just be doing a gross, belly flop and making a splash
all over the place.
This happened to me one time - I sat down to meditate and forgot to
start my mantra - then about 20 minutes later I woke up and discovered
that I had been merely taking a nap. It wasn't unpleasant and I can't
remember what I was doing all that time, but it got me to thinking. Go
figure.
