Sakon's Hideout is situated in Ikana Canyon from Majora's Mask. This is where Sakon keeps his stolen goods. During the Kafei and Anju sidequest, Link enters it on the Final Day along with Kafei to retrieve his stolen Sun Mask.
Kafei finds his wedding ceremony mask sitting on top of a conveyor belt upon entering the hideout; however, just as he is about to grab the mask, he accidentally steps on the switch which starts the conveyor belt. Together, Link and Kafei must go through the various puzzles and enemies that are located inside in order to get to the end of the hideout and stop the mask from falling into an endless hole at the end of the track. Kafei goes through one door, which deals with pushing blocks on top of switches, and Link goes through another one, which concentrates on fighting and defeating enemies. The security system of the hideout is made so that Kafei must push the blocks on top of the blue switches in order for Link to be able to go to the next room; likewise, Link must defeat the enemies he encounters so that the door on Kafei's side unlocks, allowing him to go to the next room and do the next puzzle.[1] The two must continue this process until they arrive at the end of the hideout, where they must each step on one blue switch to recover the Sun Mask.
While on Kafei's side, Kafei must be careful to not step on the red switches, for they increase the speed of the conveyor belt; however, stepping on the yellow switches slows it down.
For some reason, there is a sign outside his hideout, either for humor or to indicate Sakon is very confident in his security system (which is indeed uncrackable without at least two people).[2]
