Unlocking the alternative side-quests?

Does anyone have a consistent way of getting Mireille's/Gatekeeper's missions in Chapter 9? (Ie. "The Price of Thievery" and "Shear's Counterattack")? Every guide I've read online contradicts another one.

I followed the steps in PowerPyx's guide on my first playthrough:

  • Sam Dialogue (Chocobo Cowboy): When describing Tifa to him pick “She’s great at handling the books”.
  • In Wall Market, don’t talk to the guy in front of the hotel and don’t talk to the hotel receptionist.
  • In Wall Market, Ignore the Johnny Discovery Event (where he runs away) and head straight for the main objective.
  • When Sam does the coin flip, pick “Heads”.
  • Pick the most expensive massage “Luxury Course – 3000 Gil”
  • When Aerith asks how you like her outfit “Looks comfortable”.

PowerPyx is usually pretty reliable, but I follow these instructions and I did NOT get the alternative missions. On my next playthrough I just picked the following options:

  • She's in great shape
  • Didn't talk to the hotel people
  • Ignored Johnny
  • Heads
  • Luxury
  • Alright

And I still didn't get the alternative missions. I'm about to start my third and I don't know what to select... :(

IGN's guide says:

  • Do not participate in Sam's coin toss
  • Choose the Expensive Massage Course

Gamerant's guide says:

  • Choose "No deal" during Sam's coin toss.
  • Receive the "Luxury" from Madam M.
  • Say "It matter what I think?" or "Looks comfortable" when asked about Aerith's dress.
  • Complete the Vagabond Johnny discovery side quest.

Another guide says:

  • Hotel guy: How much?
  • Sam: Tails
  • Massage: Luxury
  • Outfit: It matter what I think?

Yet another says:

  • Don't talk to the hotel guy
  • Sam: Heads
  • Massage: Luxury
  • Outfit: Comfortable

Surely someone knows the 100% definitive way to unlock them properly? All evidence seems to suggest it's completely random? Thanks.

How do you unlock side missions?

Depending on which choices you make in Chapter 9, you'll get one of two sets of odd jobs after completing the colosseum. When you complete the game, you must return to Chapter 9 and pick up the other two side quests if you want to get the Best in the Business trophy.

How do I get the last two side quests in FF7 Remake?

Wall Market To get the Chocobo Sam quests ("The Party Never Stops" and "Dynamite Bodies"), agree with Johnny at the Honeybee Inn, choose heads or tails at the coin toss, and choose the "poor man's" option for 100 gil at Madam M's. You can also talk to Johnny's dad in the inn and near the Corneo Colosseum.
