Episode: 08 - It's Impossible

The boss leads the girls to a space station for supplies. While they are there they run into Rabat and Utan (his dumb-ass monkey-gorilla thing). The girls try to capture him, but he manages to escape. Then the space station defences start and the girls and Hibiki battle the station while Rabat watches from his ship. Rabat watches Hibiki and Dita merge and is very impressed.
Rabat cons his way onto Nirvana for repairs and supplies because unknown to everyone, Utan stole Pyoro. When he arrives, he's a very smooth talker to all the ladies, and give them all free jewerly and make-up. You learn that Rabat is not from Taraaku. He come from a planet wear men and women live together. B.C. and the boss are very suspicious of him (as is Hibiki) they are afraid that he may know the enemy or even work for them.
In the meantime, Rabat convinces Dita to show him Hibiki bangata. But when he gets to close Dita trys to stop him. The spying Paiway, sees this, informs Hibiki, and he runs to help (help his bangata or Dita?). Hibiki tells Rabat that he doesn't act like a real man, but Rabat tells him that he's just "reciting someone else's lines," and Hibiki is just a stupid hothead. Then Rabat proceeds to beat the shit out of Hibiki to prove to Hibiki how weak he really is. B.C. and the boss decide not to interfere, because men tend to learn things about themselves through fighting. They continue fighting, but Meia eventually breaks it up before Rabat kills Hibiki. Rabat then leaves the Nirvana.
Dita decides to leave Hibiki alone. But Meia trys to console him. Hibiki learns that Rabat hurt his pride and he needs to learn his "own words" and what he truely believes in, not just what he's been taught.
