Invariant-type quotient conjecture

Assume that TT is NIP. Let M+NM\prec^+N, let aUa\in\mathcal U be such that tp(a/N)\operatorname{tp}(a/N) is MM-invariant, and let ϕ(x;y)L(M)\phi(x;y)\in L(M).

Invariant-type quotient conjecture. There are bUb\in\mathcal U and a formula ψ(z;y)\psi(z;y) such that tp(b/N)\operatorname{tp}(b/N) is finitely satisfiable in MM and

ϕ(a;N)=ψ(b;N).\phi(a;N)=\psi(b;N).

This is posed as a test question about analysing an invariant type through a finitely satisfiable type and a definable quotient. The supplied text gives no resolution.
