'climactic events' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'pirate captain discovered text' is the wordplay.
'pirate' becomes 'org' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'captain' becomes 'cap' (abbreviation).
'discovered' says to take the centre (dis-covered - outer letters removed).
'text' becomes 'SMS' (abbreviation for Short Message Service).
The centre of 'cap' is 'a'.
'org'+'a'+'sms'='ORGASMS'

'revealing' is the link.
