1) How do we rationalise the vade breathing over the tusken massecre scene?
2) How much of Palpatines plans do his aides know?

[1] How do we rationalize hearing peoples thoughts in some films? It’s a damn movie
[2] His highest aids likely know something o his plans for seizing power but nothing of the whole Sith Lord thing. He likely uses the force to ensure they keep quite.

That question was directed at those who insist on debating from the "there is no artistic licence in the movies" standpoint You know who you are

Hmm. How do you rationalize that when ever something dramatic happens, there is always some dramatic song playing, sort of like a "soundtrack?" :D

Nothing. Secrecy must be held. He playing both sides against each other, planning to kill his partner and turn the Republic into the Empire. I wouldn't trust that to a lot of people.

1. The saga is told in flashback. It's introduced as being a long time ago, and so it is perfectly clear that it could be foreshadowing.

2. Which aids? Some of them probably know a little bit about his short-term aims. I don't think any of them understand the truth, yet.

At what time did Palpatine get Sate Pestage as his Grand Vizer (sp?)?

According to the New Essential Guide to Characters, he was one of the Palpy's aides as early as his Senatorial career.
