Ray Ploshansky

(Alex Karpovsky)

Ever the gentleman, Ray stood by and watched while the love of his life, Marnie, married some-one else. But his patience paid off, because Marnie eventually came to her senses and acknowledged her true feelings for Ray. While his coffee shop might not be performing well at the moment, hopefully Shoshanna’s new marketing strategy will boost business.
