Fans of 'The Marvelous Mrs Maisel' are no strangers to the many marital issues between Abe (Tony Shalhoub) and Rose Weissman (Marin Hinkle).

After jumping through several hoops to prove that he loved and cared for her, Abe finally managed to woo back Rose into his life. Sadly, it looks like the Weissmans' are headed towards another new issue.
Season 4 of 'The Marvelous Mrs Maisel' kicked off with Abe starting a new job as a reporter at a local newspaper house. Unfortunately, one of Abe's articles caught the attention of the FBI leading to them approaching Abe and his best friend Asher Friedman (Jason Alexander) for an investigation of arson that they had committed in their younger days. A fuming Asher landed at Abe's doorstep accusing him of putting their lives at stake with his article. But after Abe's lawyer diffused the situation by revealing that the FBI had nothing against them, the duo heaved a sigh of relief, before another fire popped up. During their dinner conversation, Asher casually slipped in that Rose and he dated briefly.
