Has anyone completed this mission yet? I'm to the part where Sam needs me to search around the Research Center for clues and for 3 days I've looked all around it and inside and haven't found anything.
Another thing you can do is scroll through what they have listed here in the Assembly Station page and see if they have one listed that you don't have yet and how to get it. mytimeatportia.wikia.com/wiki/Assembly_Station
Not sure what you are missing. I didn't get anything for the assembly station after finishing that mission. Could be that you still have some side mission with people left? I don't think those count as "finishing the story" because I've gotten that letter as well, but I know there are more to Phyllis and maybe Ginger and Gus yet that I have to do, but I'm still working on their relationship points to trigger something.
Even after being told it was behind it I had a hard time because you don't see that you can to the right side of it at all. I was looking along the left and up by the gate above it and outside the gate. Even got on top of the globe area. I found it because I went and walked to the right of the gate outside until I could climb on the wall and then walked back towards the city. I was able to see it below me then. I fully expected to fall down there and get trapped, but I figured I'd just fall asleep and wake up the next day then. Once I was down there was when I saw the pathway behind the museum.
You install a lift over to the west the balloon ride for a mission. Once you have the lift you take it up and you'll find some redish rocks in that area.
Go to the far right of the museum. There is a path that leads behind the museum and to the back right side of the research center. There is a hat on the ground there.
I found it, but man that was tricky. Let me know if anyone else needs to know where to find it because I don't think I would have without help.

I am not positive, so hopefully, someone else knows. My best guess is that it may be a bug, but I'm not sure. On the left, it calls it Alpaca Hair Hats which are also known as the Colorful Hat I think. If it is you can get one by donating to the museum, but I don't think you can actually make them. If you go to the link for the hats the comments talk about a commission bug. mytimeatportia.wikia.com/wiki/Colorful_Hat
But I'm not sure since it says Fluffy Pendent and shows a photo that is clearly not a hat on the right side.
I've just got requests from Lucy (crystal necklace) and Liuwa (panbat mask) and both of those are marked as loved gifts for them.
I think the desires are almost random, probably within the range of things the character normally likes. As far as I can tell you get two people a week who will desire something and you get a week to give it to them to get a little extra friendship boost. Sometimes they will give something back as well such as a juice or something. On Monday time will be up for those two and you will get two different people. I wonder if their desires are something that would get a good response at a different time other than when they are specifically asking for it.
1 salad sauce and 2 same (I used 2 apples) fruits in the cooking set. For some reason I couldn't understand from the comments, the page for Fruit Salad says 3 same fruits, but I just went and double checked. I only needed the 2.
Since they changed the name from Herbal Tea to Herbal Juice I don't think this no longer counts as a "tea". Go to Sophie's and buy a bag of tea there. You combine that and the Chili Pepper and you have your Spicy Tea.
