Role in the series[]
The Never Nile makes a brief appearance in the episode "Captain Flynn's New Matey", as Captain Flynn's pet camel,Camille, was sent by Flynn to bring Jake and his crew to the Pirate Pyramid, since he needed Cubby's help in reading a special treasure map. Camille accompanies Flynn, Jake, Izzy, Skully and Cubby to uncover the Golden Goblet hidden within the depth of underground labyrinth within the Never Land Desert.
The Never Nile first appeared in the episode "Rise of the Pirate Pharaoh. "After Jake and his crew defeat the Pharaoh's Anubis from destroying a mountain, the Pirate Pharaoh asks why Jake and his forces are so bent on stopping him. They accuse the pharaoh of being evil, but the Pirate Pharaoh reveals he is not evil and only wishes to restore the waters of the Never Nile to the Pharaoh's Valley, Jake and his crew felt remorseful for accusing the Pirate Pharaoh of being a villain and decided to help him restore the Never Nile to make up for their mistake.
The Never Nile reappears in the episode "Dread the Pharaoh!". After Dread the Evil Genie takes control over the Pirate Pharaoh's magical crook and flail, he blasts both the Pharaoh and Otaa into the Never Nile. Later, Jake and his crew meet up with the Pirate Pharaoh at the Never Nile to come up with a plan to deal with Dread. The Never Nile is last seen at the end of the episode after Dread is defeated by the Pirate Pharaoh and Jake and his crew. Dread and Scorpio are banished by the Pirate Pharaoh from the desert. As Dread ponders his next occupation (being powerless again), he comes across a hook-like stick next to the Never Nile. He picks it up, claiming maybe he should be a nefarious pirate leading a crew to plunder the Never Sea (mirroring Captain Hook). Dread soon regrets making light at Hook when Tick-Tock the Crocodile emerges from the Never Nile and attempts to eat Dread. Dread screams for Scorpio to save him, but the scorpion ignores Dread's cries and wanders off, leaving the ex-genie fleeing in terror from the hungry crocodile.
