Melanthius
Odysseus starts crying when he looks around his home because he is overwhelmed with emotion at seeing how his household has fallen into disarray, with suitors vying for his wife's hand and disrespecting his belongings. He is also moved by seeing his loyal dog, Argos, who recognizes him after years of absence and then passes away.
That's just part of it.

Plus, he wants to see if his wife is faithful and probably also would like to know what his son thinks of him.
