The meeting of Father and son: Odysseus finally returned home after twenty years, I think his son was confused because he wore rags as a beggar that his son couldn't recognize him. Then he didn't look like original appearance. Finally Odysseus persuade him, he cried and hugged his father with surprise.
Death at the Palace: Odysseus start revenging the suitors because they have stolen something from his house, then he start using his adept method to kill them. After that, he let the head of suitors, Autuous drink the wine until he got a hangover. When he fell asleep, Odysseus could kill him at the good moment. Furthermore, the other suitors would be slaughtered by falcons in the great hill, too. Although he was very cruel, he used his plan successfully as a hero.
Odysseus and Penelope: His wife, Penelope tried to recognize him with wearing rags, same as his son. I think his adornment of all body was unobvious and hard to know that he was Odysseus. his mother tried to use some methods to let her son recognize that he was really his father. Finally, when his son made sure that his real status, they embrassed together.
