Which best explains how Odysseus' character develops over the course of The Odyssey, and how this character development affects the course of the plot?

By the end of his journey, when Odysseus arrives home dressed as a beggar, he has given up much of his pride and this causes him to allow the suitors to continue to live in his home and exploit his wife's generosity for many years.
After his first experience with the Cyclops Polyphemus, Odysseus learns that he must respect the god Poseidon. Because of Odysseus' new humility, he pleases the god who then allows him safe passage through many storms.
Because of the patience Odysseus develops throughout his journeys, when he arrives home he is able to endure the abuse of the suitors just long enough to set a clever trap and win victory over them.
Because of his longing to return home, Odysseus finally leaves Calypso's island and is able to continue on with his journey.
