Eight persons sit in two parallel rows of four, the rows facing each other. In each row the four seats are numbered 1 to 4 from left to right as seen by a fixed observer, and seat n of Row 1 sits directly opposite seat n of Row 2, so the two occupants face each other.

Z sits at the extreme left of Row 2. X faces B. Which of the following pairs face each other?
