While there, scanning mountain vistas with an old pair of binoculars for the nests of bald eagles, he happens upon a couple making love on a mountain meadow. Witnessing this, and the unfolding courtroom miracle, forces self-evaluation causing him to question his manhood, career, and relationships, reigniting a youthful dream. Shocked to discover the identity of the couple, he confronts self-martyrdom and embraces his destiny.
