This is the final scene in the entire book, and serves the purpose of displaying how much the hero has changed across all 15 beats (15 Story Beats).
As stated in the Opening Image (Opening Image Beat), the Final Image is a mirror to the opening beat. Not only should all of the hero's flaws (Characters Must Change for Gripping Stories) be fixed and on display, but it can also contain elements that were introduced in the Opening Image, but from the new perspective.
You should be leaving the reader with one word. Wow.
