Three years later...
I'm gonna get ya!
Come here.
Sleep, my insipid angel.
Crash, Crash!
Where are you, big brother?
There's something weird going on in the bay. Come see!
It is I, Aku Aku.
My duty is to protect you.
You may summon me by breaking open these crates.
Call me thrice, and I shall grant you special powers.
Come on! Follow me Crash!
Stay close and do what I do.
It's easy! All too easy.
It's true! Blondes do have more fun.
I'm okay!
The spikes broke my fall.
Hey, hey, hey! Yeah, you!
I've been doing this for ten stinkin' years!
Back and forth...back and forth...
ND I'M SICK OF IT!
Well, I'm not gonna do it no more!
Surprised to see me, Crash?
Like the fleas in your fur I keep coming back!
Three years I spent alone in the frozen Antarctic wastes...
and I missed you.
and so I've organized a little gathering,
like a birthday party except...
the exact opposite.
And look, all of your friends are here
...you are so very popular.
Let's start handing out the presents.
Lunch?
Well well, a power crystal.
Yes, the crystal is mine!
Keep back you weak-minded fool!
Avert your gaze or you'll go... cryyystal craaazy!
Throw me over there.
Trust me.
We're pals, right?
Ooh, that feels good. I was burstin' in there!
Cower you fools, before the awesome might of...
The Evil Twins.
Aren't you two adorable?
Let me see, I might have some chocy treats here for you.
Chocy Treats!
We've got some good news and some bad.
The bad news, were going to destroy your precious islands.
The good... you won't be around to see it.
Oh How tiresome.
Oh, you wanna play mind games!?
OK tough guy!
Let's play mind games.
This is the part where you go running and screaming.
Go on! Run!
Catch you later brainiac!
You, have to help me Crash!
ou heard them, they want to destroy our island home!
Humiliate and enslave you, and steal my brain!
How I envy the simple life of the tribesfolk...
living in harmony with Mother Nature,
the noble boar, the humble bumblebee...
Oh, Crash!
The farmer's market is tomorrow.
And my wumpa trees won't grow.
For my orchard is riddled with greedy worms.
If you rid my land of these pests,
I'll give you this power crystal.
I'm an evil scientist, what do you expect?
This isn't a game.
I tell ya, you boys have been doing swell. Just swell!
Anyhow, We've been taking in the sights of N. Sanity Island here,
so much to see, so much to destroy!
You got the native village, the lava caves, the totem gods.
Yeah! Back in the Tenth Dimension, we don't have anything near as nice as the totem gods.
The vivid colors, the intricate carving...
You know, it's almost as if they were alive!
Almost... exactly as if they were alive!
Agh, nuts!
There's nuts?!
Well, you gave it your best shot.
But even now, our Vice-Versa Reverser Device is in operation,
sucking the goodness out of this dimension and leaving behind the worst of all possible worlds!
We just like making a mess.
See ya 'round, losers!
Hey, is it lunchtime yet?
The Tenth Dimension... ?
yes, YES!
In the dark ocean of my intellect swims a magnificent whale of a plan!
To the laboratory! We're not beaten yet! The game is on!
Before you rises a cathedral of diabolical genius!
Scary.
But in the wrong hands this iceberg lair could do much...
GOODNESS in the world.
Of course, only I have the key.
Observe.
Follow me! I know... another way.
The check bounced? Are you sure?
Well, the past few years have kind of been slow,
Wrath of Cortex didn't do as well as we hoped and-
Fish?
Free, AGAIN!
Mighty Uka Uka!
Who has freed me from my icy tomb?
My my, can it be? Crash and Cortex?
I don't know whether to kiss you, or KILL you!
I SHALL RETURN!
Uka Uka, wait!
An evil greater than even yours threatens to destroy this world.
NOOOOOO! That's my job!
Divided we are but two magical masks.
Join me, and together we shall defeat this evil infestation.
I like a challenge, I accept!
This should be fun!
The Aku-Uka brothers, together again.
Come! We must make preparations for-
It's... probably for you.
Trick or treat! Trick or treat!
Fools! You thought these two body toys could defeat us!?
We are MASTERS of the Infinite Dimensions, with power over reality itself!
And riches beyond imagination!
RICHES?
Riches?! What's wrong with you?!
Always bringing up the riches!
You don't remember us, do you, doctor?
Should I?
You ruined our lives!
Allow us... to return the favor.
You see? This is why nobody likes you!
A curse on you, Crash Bandicoot! A curse on you all!
We shall return!
Oh! Forget I mentioned the riches thing, huh?
Doctor Cortex, what have you done?
Who ARE those evil upstarts?!
I've ruined the lives of so many! I can't be expected to remember them all!
Such a big head... such a tiny brain!
If we deliver him to the Evil Twins, perhaps they will spare us.
But they'll kill me!
That's a risk I'm willing to take!
Crash, I've been like a father to you!
I created you, nursed you...tried to destroy you...
Truce.
With my mighty intellect and your vacuous stupidity, we'll be unbeatable!
Come along, to the Psychetron!
This... is the Psychetron.
Gateway to the infinite dimensions!
Beyond our universe, somewhere between the ninth and eleventh dimensions,
lies the mysterious tenth dimension,
and there we must go, in order to confront the evil twins,
steal the riches, and restore the natural order of things, with me on top.
We require six Power Crystals in order to make the leap and we have... four.
Let's see..
That isn't enough!
All is lost!
Unless...
Come allong!
There! To the sea I tell you!
Our salvation floats across the briny blue!
We must reach N. Gin's battleship and quickly before it sets sail! But how?
Think Cortex, think!
Get away from me!
Coming through!
Ladies~
-No! -Don't!
Excuse me madam.
Are those Real?
Mother!?
I have never been so humiliated...
no amount of treasure could ever be able to compensate.
Treasure, eh?
Ahhh, yummy, fresh meat for my pot.
The rats are leaving the sinking ship,
Tell us where the treasure is and we'll... let you go.
Silence!
Looks like we have to bring it out of him.
N. Brio, get changed!
You monster! Let my brother go!
My crystals!
Ruined! Thanks to perky here.
Must be repaired, and only one person can fix it,
My niece, Nina Cortex. Isn't she delightful...?
It's obvious I've made a few adjustments here--- and there.
Quickly! To my private dirigible!
Set a course for Madame Amberly's Academy of Evil.
This way!
I love my airship. It's the only way to fly.
Hey hey, so this is how the rich and the ugly fly?
Oh stewardess, may I have another bag of those spicy peanuts?
I would-
Boring~!
Yeah yeah, whatever. Skip to the good bit.
Ah yes, the old alma mater.
As a former student myself, I am well-acquainted to the many secrets this institution holds.
I'm stuck!
The greatest evil scientist in THE WORLD!
Stuck in a pipe...
How can things get any worse?
Cozy, ain't it?
Rumor is you two got your mitts in some nifty treasure, and I wanna piece of that pie!
I have no idea what you just said.
I'll take it from here
Get back to the airship. Make sure it's mooring rope are secure.
Sleep soundly, Nina, and don't fear the night...
with its large claws that scratch and its sharp teeth that bite!
Under the covers there's no need to hide...
when your uncle's a monster and he's ON YOUR SIDE!
Nina! My adorable young niece, my my, you're getting big!
And sneaky... Put it there, little lady.
I see I need to make some adjustments. Let me take a look.
My airship! Without it we're stranded!
Tie it to something SECURE I said!
Hurry Nina, or you'll miss the bus!
They've found us! To the airship, quickly!
You are in detention!
Madam Amberly...
So, crybaby Cortex is all grown-up. I see you found employment as a barber.
I'm an evil scientist!
I'm an evil scientist!
As cientist?
To me, you'll always be a little worm!
This way!
Wait! I think... I remember now.
The way it... happened...
Victor, Mortitz!
Back in your cage, your naughty boys!
I was 8 years old and I was the most popular student in the academy.
Ah, yes, how they loved me.
It was my first experiment with the Evolv-O Ray.
Phase 1 in my plan of creating an army of super animals!
The test subjects: my 2 pet parrots: Victor and Moritz.
The only creatures I didn't loathe or eat.
The experiment was procceding as fine,
When suddenly...
My parrots were gone!
Lost amongst The Infinite Dimensions!
I was heartbroken.
How I missed those twins, and how I wanted to see them again.
But be careful what you wish for, young man...
Back off, grampa!
...Or your wish will come true.
Come now we explored a new dimension!
Should have been two new dimensions, but we ran out of time
Your fur it so soft... and wram
Evil Crash! No!
My daughter,
NIECE!!!!!
We must do something!
Think Cortex, think!
Here they are.
Let her go!
Take me instead!
This way!
Victor and Moritz's stronghold of evil!
This is where we wrong the rights! And sweep the past under the rug.
Oh my, I almost forgot! The treasure!
Our treasure!
Yes, we are rich!
That treasure is stolen property.
It's a little late to develop a conscience, Doctor.
Personally, I don't care,
but I think he might want his gems back?
Well well well
apparently you little rascals have been very busy since the last we saw each other.
Busy finding a way to meet you again!
Your failed experiment sent two innocent parrots to THE TENTH DIMENSION!
The severe reversal radioactive conditions here sharpened our skills and warped our fragile, eggshell minds.
Comedians, are a classic recipe in the evil villain cookbook.
You see pops, when it comes to evil scientific prowess, we learned from the best.
True. Now...
PLAYTIME IS OVER!
Victor, Moritz.
Back in your cage, you naughty boys!
What am I doing?
Curse my regimented upbringing!
That's it, Cortex!
You wanna make up for lost time and play with your pets? So be it.
LET'S GET OUT OF HERE!!!
Oh boy! I do love roast chicken!
Now this is one heck of an ending...
You know, Crash, for all these years, I've been wrong about you.
Your creation was a mistake, and your existence has been a constant reminder of that mistake.
But now I learned something from all of this.
I learned that you can't get run away from your mistakes,
but you can bury them!
I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOUR RIDICULOUS FACE AGAIN!!!
Wh-where am I? What is this?
Crash Bandicoot will return...
Okey, the two of you been asked to begin these therapy session so that we can work throught the conflict apparent in your relationship.
This week we're going to do a trust exercise.
Cortex, let's start with you.
I would like you to fold your arms over your chest.
Close your eyes and fall backwards.
Okey, Crash. Your job is easy.
Just catch Cortex as he falls.
We want Dr. Cortex here to know that he is in a safe place.
I don't think this is going to work, he's an idiot.
I don't even him let alone trust him.
It's just that I have a fear of falling.
Okay, fine. Let's do the silly exercise.
I'm a safe place.
I'm a safe place.
I'm a safe place.
