Some people who fall in trance easily lose consciousness, they don't remember a thing, when you give them suggestion they act on some and not on others, the concious mind does nothing here as far as I'm aware.
This reminds me of a funny anecdote I read by a professional hypnotherapist who did an experiment with one of his patients. While the patient was in a deep trance, the hypnotist was doing his thing, and then he suddenly gave an instruction that he assumed the patient would wholeheartedly refuse, something along the way of: "Now go and kick my secretary in the balls", to which the patient supposedly responded, still in trance, "How about I kick you in the balls".
Well that reminds me of something I experienced. I was with my brother and father on holidays, we had to sleep together in a room. And as usually its hard to fall asleep as my father is always snoring at some point.
So when he started snoring I started yelling a bit so it wakes him up.
But to my amazement he yelled back to me and 2 sec later he snored again, like it didn't even wake him up at all. My brother and me was sure that he was really sleeping again just after yelling back, as he doesn't know how to fake snoring since he never hear himself how he does it.
My little story here revealed me that his subconscious mind actually answered back, that's a very rare event though and it never happened again. I didn't know hypnosis or subconscious mind at the time.
The next morning he was unaware that he did all that.
