Was watching "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me" (the second in the series, in case you forget) and noted this imdb trivia:
Rob Lowe (Young Number Two) and Michael McDonald (N.A.T.O. Soldier) appeared uncredited in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997) as different characters from this movie. Lowe appeared in the scene where a group of friends waiting at a henchman's bachelor party hear of his death. A similar scene showed McDonald's family being informed of his death.
In case it's not clear, they're saying it's strange that Rob Lowe has a part in Austin Powers 2 because he already played a different role in Austin Powers 1. The only problem is, I know the movie pretty well and I was pretty sure that scene doesn't exist.
The answer to the riddle is that it does exist, in the international version, not in the American version. It was deleted for time, or so I've read. If you're like me and never heard of this scene in your life, here it is:
And here is the scene it would have followed. RIP John Smith, his death was a heady moment.
And here is the second deleted scene connected with the second repeat actor, also cut for time from the version we all saw:
