Forensics come back and the only fingerprints on the vial are Franco’s; the police ask Nurse Nancy what made her suspicious… she says, Franco.  Claims he was acting ‘shifty.’  The group is now on another island in the Mediterranean; Sam says she is going to look for Jason.  He told them all to get out and went down with the plane, but it exploded.  Dante tells her he probably didn’t make it; Ava agrees, Jason has got to be dead.  It almost seems like Franco is trying to freak Elizabeth out a little bit; Nurse Nancy tells the police that Franco is on a date with Elizabeth Webber.  They ask who else would know anything about Franco’s plan – Nurse Nancy says nobody else wants anything to do with him, other than Liz and Dr. Olbrecht.  

Someone walks up behind Finn and says that lizard looks like she’s in love… it’s Jax!  Carly is surprised to see him.  Elizabeth asks about this place; Franco tells her that he bought it after he and Nina broke up.  Says he’s been working “like a mad-man” lately (then, laughingly, says he means ‘really hard’).  Carly introduces Jax to Hamilton Finn; Jax says he just had some business in town so he thought he’d surprise his daughter, Joslyn.  Nina asks Curtis to perform another investigation for her; he tells her that she is a beautiful, intelligent woman and Franco is a fool.  Franco tells Elizabeth that he has been inspired lately, to paint again; he says he has a whole new set of feelings he is trying to explore.  He wants to show her something, and hopes she doesn’t find it too disturbing.  

It’s a picture of her (he tells her, he thinks of her); she says it’s beautiful.  It really is beautiful… he calls her a vision of beauty in a world of chaos.  Andre comes to the hospital; the police ask him what he felt about Franco.  He says that Franco did seem to have an unusual fixation with death.  Andre is being rather cold to Jordan.  As Sam takes off to go find Jason, she faints, again.  She wakes up and says she’s fine; they hear a boat, but it goes away.  Elizabeth confesses that she always secretly wanted to be an artist; she asks to paint him.  Just as he tells her the right combination can do wonders, there is a knock on the door; it is the police – they want to question him.  Sam hears someone walking in the woods, and goes running, yelling for Jason.
