Sam is talking with the alien.

Sam is the doer of the action.

---> Sam is the subject.

Thus, a subject is a noun or pronoun (Sam or He) that performs an action in a sentence.

The alien is pointing at his special house.

What is the alien doing?

He is pointing at his special house.

---> "pointing at his special house" is the predicate.

Thus, a predicate tells includes a verb "what a subject is doing" and the rest of the sentence.

Sam is coming back to Earth.

Sam is doing the action, so he is the subject.

What is he doing? "He is coming back to Earth."

So, "coming back to Earth" is the predicate.
