Tiffany “Rex” Simpson spends her childhood daydreaming about becoming an astronaut. Then real life shows up in flip-flops. She ends up running the party scene in sunny Florida, working as a bartender, and looking like the kind of person who definitely knows where the good snacks are.
But one day the NASA starts recruiting. And of course, Rex’s grades do not cooperate. So she does what any reasonable adult would do. She makes an “exceptional” resume and somehow convinces them to treat her like “Doctor Tiffany Simpson.” Great. Now comes the fun part: tests, training, and the slow panic of trying to keep her fraud from being discovered.
It’s basically a comedy built on the question: how long can you charm your way through high-stakes space stuff before the universe collects the receipts. Low-brow plot mechanics, warm personality, and a steady stream of “please don’t let them check that” moments.
----------
Tiffany „Rex“ Simpson hat die besten Pläne und die ehrlichsten Noten nicht. Statt Astronautin wird sie erst mal das Party-Highlight in Florida und arbeitet sich als Barkeeperin durchs Leben, bis sie merkt, dass der Weltall-Traum irgendwie doch wichtiger ist. Spoiler: Die NASA sucht neue Kandidatinnen. Das Problem: Ihre schulischen Leistungen reichen nicht. Also bastelt Rex sich einen Masterplan aus Lebenslauf, Buzzwords und dem selbstbewussten Lächeln eines Menschen, der gerade hofft, dass niemand ins Kleingedruckte schaut.
Dann heißt es plötzlich Training, Tests und jede Menge Momente, in denen die Wahrheit nur noch einen schlechten Timing-Moment entfernt ist. Komödie mit Herz, aber auch mit dem klaren Gefühl: Wenn sie fliegt, dann nur, weil sie es schafft, aufrecht zu bleiben und ihren Betrug nicht auffliegen zu lassen. Witzig-dämlich, manchmal charmant peinlich, aber genau deshalb sehenswert.

00:22But it's not too late.
00:24I'm gonna be an astronaut.
00:28Oh, my God.
00:30Waking again?
00:31Dear NASA.
00:33Oh, girl.
00:34This resume will never get you in.
00:36But let's make a few changes that will.

01:34Get your ass back home before you hurt somebody.
01:38I was born to do this.
01:39Once you let your dreams out of the box, you can't just shove them back in.
01:43Seven, two, three, you're clear for takeoff.
01:44Punch it, flamingo.
01:53Is this thing hard to land or what?
01:56You need more than you might.
