b. latent content

Explanation:

According to Sigmund Freud, latent content of the dream is the hidden meaning behind the dream which has an underlying message. It is suppressed by the subconscious mind to safeguard the individual from difficult emotions and feelings. If these thoughts are revealed then the mind can be sent into the state of turmoil so the subconscious mind actively hides these thoughts. They still influence the behavior and conscious thoughts in some way. Freud believed that this latent content should be unrevealed so that people can face their problems directly and realize their true wishes.

Here, the literal dream was that the man was smiling as his wife boarded the plane. The latent content is that the man was not happy with the relationship with his wife and probably wanted to separate therefore he was smiling and feeling joyous when his wife was going away from him in the dream.
