    Completing the Au Revoir, Lewis! In the Stuck in their Shadow Scenario will progress to the next goal instead of getting stuck. Now, time to go check that mail box.

    Fixed in Patch 1.102.190/1.82

Product: The Sims 4

How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.97.62.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except some kits and werewolves
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play through the "Stuck in their Shadow" scenario, and decline teaming up with Lewis.

What do you expect to see? The scenario moves on to the next step so it can be completed.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

I am having this same issue: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/FIXED-Stuck-in-the-shadow-not-completing/m-p/12133983#M237304

And based on the last post in the thread by  @crinrict  I am making a new thread since this is happening after a patch that was supposed to fix it.

I started this scenario after the Infants/Growing Together update, and have not previously played this scenario or any others.

I'm posting this as a reply rather than an edit so that it gets seen:

This never happened in previous play-throughs where I got stuck here. I kept playing for days even thoughi t's been stuck (Nova has had a couple babies in the meantime, who are now infants).

I just moved Nova to San Sequoia, and after a day I noticed there was a new option under the stuck objectives: Get Mail. I clicked that, it said to read a postcard, which I did, and it said "Wait for Lewis". In a previous save I think I had this as a step from a different branch and he never showed up because it got stuck there, too. Well, he did show up in this space outfit and it says to Ask About Career. Here is where I am currently stuck, because there is no option in any of the menus to ask about career. I may have already asked him in the past? Either way, it isn't in any of the menu branches now, so I cannot progress further.

I thought I'd mention this because finally some objectives updated after always being stuck. I did not change anything in my game and as far as I know, there has been no update. 

Edit: I did buy & install a kit, but I don't see how that would change anything gameplay-wise, and I didn't notice any new/updated objective until I moved Nova.
