Finished all bar one. Staring at it for an hour. Now thinking I have something wrong elsewhere

4 acc. Work in trouble (3)
R - B

Rub is working I guess, but where is the connection? Please put me out my misery!

Rub = work in (butter into flour for example)

Rub is an old-fashioned word for 'trouble'/difficulty. Miss Marple would have used it ' 'there's the rub'!
