It is very clear throughout the entire play that love is the most important thing to Romeo. If family were more important, he would be on the streets defending his family's honor right in the opening scene rather than sitting alone whining about Rosaline. When Romeo finds Juliet he knows right away that she is part of the Capulets, but he is already committed to being in love with her. In the balcony scene he says that he would change his name, "call me but love and I'll be new baptized. Henceforth I never will be Romeo". This shows specifically that his identity lies in his love, not in his name. He is willing to create a new family for himself for the sake of love.

Read the excerpt from "As Good as Gold."
Wittaler [7]

There are five elements of a plot: Exposition, conflict, raising action, climax, falling action and Resolution. From these elements, the one that approaches best to that excerpt is Resolution. The word "finally" can be a signal word that denotes the ending part and Resolution means that the conflict has been solved and indicates the ending, which it really makes sense, since after all the things happened in Jake's life, at the end "I expect we'll need three servings of bacon today" refering maybe to a happy ending.
