Lucy's hometown of Dallas has gone from home sweet home to vicious snake pit after her son makes a mistake he can't undo. Greta's flat in Berlin is suddenly up for grabs when her husband Otto takes a job in Texas. In their rush to leave town, Lucy and Greta make a deal, pack their bags, and have no idea what they're getting themselves into. Greta and Lucy's husbands are no help: Otto is winning over his colleagues, while Lucy's husband is doing a stretch out west, either in a NASA biosphere or in jail, depending on who you ask. Through jet lag, culture shock, and scandals that refuse to be left behind, Lucy and Greta will have to decide if they can ever go home again.
