How to complete “Find the Bitizen”

star-wars-tiny-death-star

In tiny Death Star, Palpatine has given me the mission "Find the Bitizen" with the text "Working for tips is acceptable. Find 1 Bitizen(s)."

I assumed I had to wait for one of the events where you have to find a "rebel scum" and tap on it to get rid of. One of those events finally popped up but it did not complete the mission.

How do I complete this mission?

You have to wait for a mission (similar to "find the rebel spy") where someone is looking for a friend (or one of a number of other "find so-and-so" missions) and then find them. I almost gave up on that mission, but patience finally paid off.
