Injected in FlexBox options

The issue can be found here: http://stoddard.sfd.liamconrad.org
It works with other themes: Haven’t Tried
It works when I disable all other plugins: Haven’t Tried
Meta Slider version: 2.0-beta4

Issue:
An erroneous </p><p> is being injected into the inline javascript just following the options, as seen by the following code:

<p><script type='text/javascript'>
    var metaslider_313 = function($) {
        $('#metaslider_313').flexslider({
            slideshowSpeed:3000,
            animation:"fade",
            controlNav:false,
            directionNav:false,
            pauseOnHover:true,
            direction:"horizontal",
            reverse:false,
            animationSpeed:600,
            prevText:"<",
            nextText:">",
            easing:"linear",
            slideshow:true,
            useCSS:false
        });</p>
<p>    };
    var timer_metaslider_313 = function() {
        var slider = !window.jQuery ? window.setTimeout(timer_metaslider_313, 100) : !jQuery.isReady ? window.setTimeout(timer_metaslider_313, 100) : metaslider_313(window.jQuery);
    };
    timer_metaslider_313();
</script><br />

This can be seen in the source of the site I’m currently developing at lines 161 and 162. This section corresponds with lines 276-287 of metaslider.class.php (get_inline_javascript() function), where there are no </p><p> mistakenly entered, nor any opportunity for these tags to be injected, as far as I can tell.

If I may be able to get help with this quickly, this project is overdue. Your assistance with this is greatly appreciated.
