I thought about the Momma Bosco thingie, and I come up with the answer about Momma Bosco does own Sam and Max a favor.
Bosco killed her with a explosion of Vinegar and Baking Soda (Sam and Max's explosion was the second one which destroyed the stairs). That explosion was caused because Sam and Max scare him because he's paranoid. Bosco paranoia was caused by Momma Bosco, chasing him because he trashed her store the day Bosco's Born by using the Mariachis Time Machine, but the Bosco was able to do it thanks to the Explosion which killed Momma Bosco in first place.
In other words, since this is a circular string of culprits, you can say Momma Bosco caused her own dead, because Sam and Max wouldn't be able to scare Bosco if Bosco wasn't paranoid in first place. God, I love this episode.
Ok, this is off topic, but in the trailer, near the start of the episode 5 part, when sam starts talking about how max would love to see this, look to the top left. you can see skunkapes ship flying. and also, how can they help, they're atacking people!
I too fail epicly at stealthy moments. And i took me like 40 minuites to figure out the castle in Sbcg4ap. But the sight of skunkapes ship in the trailer means 2 things, Skunkape is alive, and so is gordon.
Personally, I think Gordon isn't memorable enough to bring back.
Sammun-Mak probably is, but he(?)'s memorable because he(?) was annoying, so I rather not have him(?) back either...
-Momma Bosco: kind of obvious really. Her scientific knowledge and inter-dimensional machinery would work pretty good in a situation like this. besides, she is one of the few people that doesn't hate Sam & max (or at least not that much)
-Grandpa Stinky: For starters he appeared in the trailer, second, wasn't he good when it came to spells and recipes of the arcane? not counting he can be pretty good with a shotgun and a knife (Beyond the Alley of the Dolls), though I think it could be hard for Sam to make him join considering how he hates our heroes' guts.
-Sybil: well, if she is coming back for the finale, my guess is that at least she will have a role in all of this. Maybe, since she used to be psychologis she may be a bit usefull when it comes to get inside the brain of a gigant legamorph abomination.
-Sal: Mostly for the lulz here, but hey, Sal is one of the few characters that have no hard feeligns against Sam & max. Thought my guess is that he wil end up as the team's meat shield.
-Flint Paper: Well he also appeared in the trailer so yeah. His brute detective skills and his raw power sure can come in handy (for example in beating a few Gorilla minions).
-Gordon the Brain: I stil believe we are gonna see the guy again, but how can he help? well for starters he CAN CONTROL AN ENTIRE SPACESHIP. Skunkape's powerful vessel may come very handy when dealing with Junior Max or any of Superball's Maimatron armada if they get in the way (hoping for a gigant monster/robot/spaceship battle!). also, he also has The Gift (sure there are no more Toys of Power any more, but norrington said the power is within those midns and the toys just open them up).
-Stinky: also for the lulz or just being near Sal. She may probably do nothing and just complain all the way through the game.
Harry Moleman: probably will be the most unfortunate member and the one will suffer the most but, hey he is a moleman, he HAS to have soemthing of power, right?...right?
People I believe will NOT be in the Crack Team:
-Bosco: he is still in Las vegas. besides, why someone as paranoid as him would come back to a city with a gigant monster attacking.
-Sammun-Mak: If 303 taught us anything is that no matter what, the pharaoh is NOT someone you can trust. Sure he has The Gift, but making him learn to unlock his powers without the toy would probably end with the brat backstabbing everybody and reality warp everythign in his own image....again....
-Skunkape: wel, if Flin if beating up Good, my guess is Skunkape is not gonna be of help (if he comes back that is). Probably the first thing he would try to flee on his spaceship and leave this planet to crumble at the hands of Junior Max.
-Paperwaite/Norrington: Sadly, I feel they will not be in the best condition to help out aftre the incident with Charlie-Hotep, soooo yeah...
I wonder if Sammun-Mak's brain will be used to pilot Skunkape's ship (but the ship will be commandeered by Sam's crack team.) Gordon could be manipulated by Skunkape while in the ship, so perhaps Sammun-Mak could be disciplined in a similar manner. Besides that, pilot that ship takes a lot of energy, certainly enough energy that Sammun-Mak couldn't effectively plan a coup while controlling the ship.

Or it's a sequence like in 301 when you have to escape the lasers from Skun-ka'pe's ship.
You and me both.
Could be Grand Theft Spaceship by Sam for all we know.
Three words:
Sammun-Mak's brain.
That's..uh..two words. Sammun-Mak is one word.
Personally, I think Gordon isn't memorable enough to bring back.
Sammun-Mak probably is, but he(?)'s memorable because he(?) was annoying, so I rather not have him(?) back either...
Two other words: Max Spore.

Check it out. Give greenheadphones a round of applause, everyone.
Greenheadphones is now my new best friend.
I like it!
