Plot
The game takes place three years after the conclusion of Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex, in which Crash destroys Doctor Neo Cortex's space station and rescues Crunch Bandicoot. Cortex and Uka Uka escape and are preserved in ice in the frozen wastes of Antarctica. Crash's sister, Coco Bandicoot, while chasing a harmless butterfly, is paralyzed by Cortex. Poorly disguised as Coco, Cortex lures Crash over to a bay, where he attacks Crash with the Mecha-Bandicoot, a gigantic bandicoot-like mech. After this fails to defeat Crash, the robot falls in a cave, taking Crash and Cortex with it. Cortex, infuriated over losing to Crash again, attacks him, and the duo fight roll all the way to the cave's exit.
After getting out of the cave, Crash and Cortex are confronted by a pair of odd, turquoise parrot-like creatures who self-proclaim themselves as "The Evil Twins", who have come to destroy the Wumpa Islands. When it is learned that the they come from the Tenth Dimension, Cortex proposes that he and Crash travel the islands in search of crystals needed to power the Psychetron, a machine which will allow them travel to the Tenth Dimension. Crash and Cortex later face and defeat Uka Uka, and is ultimately convinced by his brother Aku Aku to help him defeat the Twins, but are easily defeated by the evil duo. Crash faces and defeats many of his old enemies during this crystal-gathering quest, including Doctor N. Gin, Doctor Nitrus Brio and Doctor Nefarious Tropy.
However, after retrieving enough power crystals, Cortex is confronted by Coco Bandicoot, who believes he kidnapped Crash. Coco kicks Cortex on the crotch, jettisoning the crystals onto the Psychetron, breaking it and paralyzing her again. In order to fix it, Cortex and Crash travel to Madame Amberley's Academy of Evil in order to fetch Nina Cortex, the only person who could do so. After defeating Dingodile and Madame Amberley it is later revealed that the Evil Twins are actually Neo Cortex's former pet parrots, mutated by the radiation present in the Tenth Dimension. Once Nina fixes the Psychetron, she, Crash and Cortex travel to the Tenth Dimension, a bizarre and gloomy mirror universe version of Earth, where they defeat the Evil Twins, who escape and are subsequently eaten alive by Evil Crash, the Tenth Dimension's version of Crash. The game ends with Cortex using the Psychetron to get rid of Crash, only to have it malfunction and travel Cortex into Crash's mind.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“The westward march has stopped, upon the final plains of the Pacific; and now the plot thickens ... with the change, the pause, the settlement, our people draw into closer groups, stand face to face, to know each other and be known.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“Those blessed structures, plot and rhyme—
why are they no help to me now
I want to make
something imagined, not recalled?”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
“James’s great gift, of course, was his ability to tell a plot in shimmering detail with such delicacy of treatment and such fine aloofness—that is, reluctance to engage in any direct grappling with what, in the play or story, had actually “taken place”Mthat his listeners often did not, in the end, know what had, to put it in another way, “gone on.””
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
