As a follow up to Morty Seinfeld's exile in disgrace from the
Florida condo in "The Cadillac", Helen tells Jerry in the next episode
("The Shower Head") that his (Morty's) phlebitis "is acting up again".
That's not likely medically. It is a reference, however, to Nixon's
hospitalization with phlebitis in 1974, in exile, in California.
BTW, Jackie Mason's comment on this was "phlebitis? what
phlebitis? You don't screw 200 million people and get phlebitis...
syphillis, yes; no phlebitis"Nixon Reference on "The Shower Head":
