It’s because you’re returning the embedded function and not the local function. You can do this as a workaround:

--Don't feel like copying the whole script, here's a general idea
local function ResearchChecks(science)
local referencevalue

RepStorage.Remotes.TechEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(val)
print (val)
referencevalue = val
end)
while task.wait() do
if referencevalue ~= nil then 
return referencevalue
end
end

Sorry for poor formatting
