Cheap Space Homer is an event-exclusive questline in The Simpsons: Tapped Out. It was introduced in the Deep Space Homer content update.

Dialogue

Pt. 1

After completing Mars Won Pt. 3 With our new space program, think of all the hot alien women we can grope inappropriately. Er, I mean all the fascinating scientific discoveries we can grope inappropriately. While the universe is very large, Mayor Quimby, we have yet to discover alien life. There's the Sky Finger. Our intelli-didily-gent designer. Mayor Quimby, out of respect to science, can we please stop holding meetings with random people in the room? Sorry but I welcome all constituents who want to observe our government's dignity and professionalism in action. Now let's cut some space checks! Task: "Make Quimby Work Out Payments". The job takes place at the Rocket Launch Pad (farm), Rocket Launch Pad (built), Shuttle Hangar, Space Training Center, or Town Hall and takes 3 hours. Task: "Earn NARA Certification Stars" (x2). At the very least, this space program might help kids see that learning is fun! I hope so. Then again, I said the same about my Henry David Tho-robot. Didn't that robot go crazy and try to stab someone? No! It was PROGRAMMED to go crazy and try to stab someone. Big difference. Quest reward: 100 and 10 Space Training Center

Pt. 2

After tapping on Quimby's exclamation mark This space program needs an astronaut! Someone both capable of earning NARA certification stars and relatable to the common man. Look. I know you're hinting at me coming out of astronaut retirement but I gave all that up when I learned I could get astronaut ice cream on Earth. You were an astronaut? You don't remember? I trained, went into space, survived an emergency landing? I also held up the Inanimate Carbon Rod at the parade. You were the Inanimate Carbon Rod holder? Why didn't you say so? No one remembers? That does it -- I'm entering the NARA certification program. Great! All you need to do is sign your name. Too much work. I quit. Task: "Make Homer Train as an Astronaut". The job takes place at the Space Training Center and takes 3 hours. Task: "Earn NARA Certification Stars" (x10). Quest reward: 100 and 10 Deep Space Homer

Pt. 3

After tapping on Deep Space Homer's exclamation mark How come we have to do all this work to get launched into space when rocks get catapulted right away. Psst. Homer. I think I might have an easier way to earn your NARA stars. If it's steroids, I'm not interested. My testicles are finally at a size I like. There's another way. Why earn stars when you can make stars? So... you're a wizard? Give me money and I'll give you fake NARA stars. I don't know how to break it down more than that. Message Collect counterfeit stars at the Space Training Center every 3 hours. Task: "Tap the Space Training Center". Task: "Earn NARA Certification Stars" (x30). Homer, I'm worried that all this training to become an astronaut is too much for you. Plus you seem to be going through our aluminum foil budget a lot quicker than I planned for. Don't worry Marge, we're almost finished! All we need is to somehow get our hands on a space shuttle. There isn't even a space shuttle? Mayor Quimby bought a hangar without realizing the shuttle inside is just a fake demo shuttle. First rule of space: always read the fine print. Second rule of space: don't try to breathe. Quest reward: 100 and 10 Shuttle Hangar

Pt. 4

After tapping on Quimby's exclamation mark I could build us a state of the art space shuttle in no time. At least next to no time if you rushed it with few donuts. Great! How much is that gonna cost -- two yoga mats and a sprig of mistletoe? 50 billion dollars. But it's worth every penny... right down to its novelty smashed penny machine. How about instead I buy this vintage USSR shuttle from 1963? It doesn't have NARA certification, but it does have Kremlin's Seal of Not Having Killed Too Many Dogs. I just need to take out a totally legit business loan. Aw yes! I am here from a legitimate business to provide a legitimate business loan. Just don't get behind on payments or I'll legitimately break your legs. Capisce? Task: "Make Associates Collect Payments" (x3). The jobs take place at the Rocket Launch Pad (farm), Rocket Launch Pad (built), or Shuttle Hangar and take 3 hours. Task: "Earn NARA Certification Stars" (x45). Message You've unlocked Deep Space Homer's "Gather Insect Specimens" animated job! Quest reward: 100 and 10 "Gather Insect Specimens" animated job

Characters that can do the task are:

Pt. 5

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark Dad, I thought Mom talked you out of this! Do you know how dangerous it is to fly a spaceship? Of course I do, honey. Daddy was an astronaut, remember? No one in the town does, remember? But if you're going to do this, at least let me teach you the basic science skills you need to survive. I keep hearing that from coworkers at the nuclear plant. I don't need to come home and hear it from my family, too! I suppose I could practice collecting ant samples like I will on Mars. Although I hear ants on Mars are ten feet tall and wear top hats. Alright, lesson one: learning to tell the difference between science and fever dreams. Task: "Make Homer Gather Insect Specimens". The job takes 8 hours. Task: "Earn NARA Certification Stars" (x50). Woohoo! I always knew I had it in me. If by "it" you mean disturbingly soft bones and a heart composed of 40% soft cheeses, then yes. I can't help but feel I'll be to blame if things go horribly- Right? You were going to say if things go horribly right? Just remember, when you die -- I mean if -- no I definitely mean when -- you'll die a hero! Message You've unlocked Deep Space Homer's "Walk Like a Hero" animated job! Quest reward: 100 and 10 "Walk Like a Hero" animated job

Pt. 6

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark Weather clear, potato chips opened, bladder empty, neck pillow fluffed, talking aloud commenced. Oops, almost forgot – tray table up! Now to just hit the launch button... Where's the launch button? Hold up just a moment there! A shuttle lacks the necessary propulsion to take it into orbit without rockets! Plus it should be on the launch pad. Don't use your high brow science speak to confuse me Frink! I know what I'm doing... at least as far as space-toilets go. Don't worry about what he says Homer, we'll help you put it all together. How hard can it be? It's not like it's rocket science or anything. Task: "Make Simpsons Put Rocket Ship Together" (x4). The jobs take place at the Rocket Launch Pad (empty), Rocket Launch Pad (farm), Rocket Launch Pad (built), or Shuttle Hangar and take 3 hours. Task: "Earn NARA Certification Stars" (x100). Voila! I formulated the rocket fuel in the basement with a D.I.Y. video on Viewtube! Plus learned some interesting life hacks and read some very hateful comments. Lisa, I could not do this without your brilliant mind, nor your mother's equally brilliant rice crispy treats. Hey! I deserve some of the credit. I'm the one who snuck in the plutonium for an extra big bang. By Glaven's ghost! Plutonium? That could destroy us all! Although I suppose it all won't matter soon... What do you mean? Oh, it's still research in progress. But I'll share my findings with you at the Springfield Observatory's slam poetry event and intellectual salon. Message Gather Lisa and other intellectual elite at the Springfield Observatory for more information on the hypothetical end of times and to hear some slam poetry. Message Your Rocket Launch Pad has been upgraded! Quest reward: 100 and 10 Rocket Launch Pad (built)

Characters that can do the task are:

Pt. 7

After tapping on Quimby's exclamation mark Good news, Homer! The Inanimate Carbon Rod re-entered the atmosphere and has been recovered! So you're off the hook. The rod can take over the mission and you can go back to being... what were you before? A bum? Mark my words. No rod – inanimate carbon, Serling or Stewart – will steal my thunder. I trained for this mission, and I will carry it out! Now is the rocket ship automatic or stick? Because I can't drive a stick. I'm starting to regret not paying more attention during the training process. Task: "Make Homer Launch the Space Ship". The job takes place at the Rocket Launch Pad (built) or Rocket Launch Pad (farm) and takes 6 seconds. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 8

After completing Pt. 7 Sorry, I didn't realize the parking brake was still on. And that Houston was not our destination. Homer, you might be the worst astronaut in world history. Even worse than the chimpanzees? Even worse than that Collins guy! The least you could do is put out the fires you caused! Some of us sober astronauts are serious about getting into space! Fine. I'll put out the literal fires but I refuse to try to fix any of the emotional ones. Task: "Make Homer Put Out Rocket Fuel Fires". The job takes place at the Rocket Launch Pad (built) or Rocket Launch Pad (farm) and takes 2 hours. Homer, you really saved the day! Saved the day? He crushed our dreams, ruined our space program, and called me a nerd on several occasions! But Homer's incompetence gave the Inanimate Carbon Rod the opportunity to pry open the water valve and douse those fires. That rod deserves another ticker tape parade! And I deserve another bribe from the ticker tape lobby. Quest reward: 100 and 10
