Now that I've played my way back through New Game Plus to get to this point, it's time to see how the game ends if you don't get Crono back.
I found out before the last video that the Nu in 12,000 B.C. that has to leave the building for you to get the tab behind him will only do so almost immediately after you enter the hut where you meet him. If it takes longer than that, go back and re-enter to try again.
The battle with Magus in 12,000 B.C. is pretty easy. All he does is use Lighting 2, Ice 2 and Fire 2 as well as attack with his scythe. If you have Frog in the party, it will be a one-on-one battle between Frog and Magus; otherwise, it will be Magus versus your whole party. When you beat Magus, he will tell you about Gaspar and the Chrono Trigger before he dies. There will also be a sparkle where he stood; press A on it to get the Amulet.
Once you make it back to The End of Time, you can get this ending. In this ending, Marle still wants to get Crono back, but everyone else, including Lucca, is uninterested. If you got the Chrono Trigger before getting this end, you will leave the Chrono Trigger with Gaspar before heading back to the Millenial Fair. If you didn't, you won't.
At The Millenial Fair, follow Lucca to the Telepod. Marle will mention that some sort of entity may have wanted them to go through this adventure - a statement similar to one made in the forest scene after you get Robo back during the Sunken Desert sidequest - then everyone will pop out of a portal near the Telepod. If you defeated Magus, Frog will be in human form and be Glenn again at this point. Also, if you did not get the Chrono Trigger at this point, Gaspar gives you the Chrono Trigger and tells you what it does. Everyone will suddenly be interested in getting Crono back, then Lucca gets the idea of using Epoch to get Crono back. Afterwards, you'll do the whole Leene's Bell placement again, and when Marle's father gets stuck, Marle leaves to get on the Epoch with Lucca and find Crono.
If Magus is defeated in 12,000 B.C., you'll see Frog's human form again. Instead of seeing Frog walking down Zenan Bridge with Queen Leene and numerous soldiers, you'll see him turn back to Glenn near a waterfall before seeing him with the King, Queen Leene and a few carpenters building the castle prison while Epoch flies by.
Near the end of the credits, instead of seeing the planet in Mode 7, you'll see Marle near a tree, where she waits until Crono appears in the distance and runs to him to get him back.
