Why Does Past Austin Suddenly Not Care His Mojo Was Destroyed in “The Spy Who Shagged Me”?

So, those of us who have seen the second movie all know how it goes. After jumping back ten minutes in time on the moon base, the present day Austin (now referred to as “Austin-From-Ten-Minutes-From-Now”) teams up with his past self from ten minutes ago (now referred to as “Past Austin”) to both stop the laser form destroying Washington, D.C. and save Felicity from the poison gas. They succeed.

But then Dr. Evil pulls out his final card: the vial with Austin’s mojo stolen from the frozen past Austin. (Seemingly) The only thing that can restore Austin’s libido and virility as well as cure his impotence. Activating the self-destruct, Dr. Evil throws it into the air. Both Austins in a panic rush to catch it before it shatters on the ground, and…

They fail. The two Austins collide into each other, falling to the ground, and the vial of mojo shatters on the ground in a puddle as all the grooviness and sex appeal fades from it in a colorful cloud of smoke. Austin-From-Ten-Minutes-From-Now is mortified, mourning over the puddle, trying to scoop up even a tiny drop of mojo that might have SOME of his groove left in it.

But Past Austin? …Nah. Despite having been just as freaked out as Austin-From-Ten-Minutes-From-Now mere seconds ago, he suddenly is like, “Oh well. No use crying over spilled mojo. So, uh, Austin-From-Ten-Minutes-From-Now, we should probably get out of here before this place explodes”, and flees via the time portal.

Now, we know both Austins have their mojo back during the mid-credits scene with Felicity, but in that moment on the moon base, why did Past Austin suddenly not care that his mojo was destroyed like Austin-From-Ten-Minutes-From-Now. It’s not like he knew at the time his mojo would seemingly just come back naturally. Why do you guys think Past Austin didn’t seem as upset as Austin-From-Ten-Minutes-From-Now when the mojo broke?
