Important question! If Snape was discovered by Aberforth in the middle of the prophecy, then Trelawney should have no recollection of Snape at all!

It seems that nobody (with the possible exception of jjissodamngreat) read HBP chapter 25 correctly. I quote:
He questioned me ... I must confess that, at first, I thought he seemed ill-disposed towards Divination ... and I remember I was starting to feel a little odd, I had not eaten much that day ... but then ...'
And now Harry was paying attention properly for the first time, for he knew what had happened then: Professor Trelawney had made the prophecy that had altered the course of his whole life, the prophecy about him and Voldemort.
'... but then we were rudely interrupted by Severus Snape!'
'What?'

Ergo, either Snape heard the whole prophecy, or the prophecy was delivered halfway, snape interrupted, then trelawney resumed/repeated from the beginning.

Professor Trelawney doesn't have any recollection of Snape. But Snape remembers her and can tell Voldemort who actually made that prophecy about him and Harry Potter since the prophecy in the Department of Mysterious has been destroy. So since Voldemort will do his best to drag this out important information out of her using powerful charms and spell and probably kill her. She is force to live at Hogsworth for her own protection though really she is not a great teacher. Dumbledore doesn't want Voldemort getting ahold of the prophecy at any price so if Dumbledore has to keep Trelawney at the school he must.

the dude caught snape as the prophesy was ending and came in with him after trelawney snaped out of her trance.

that's what snapped her out of the prophecy. that's what it says in the book. if you read it, she repeats the prophecy over and over. snape must have just heard a little bit of it before he was discovered which in turn, snapped her out of her trance.

Perhaps it was another fake prophecy, but one eveyone believed to be real. That way she would not have been in a real trance!
