Will I clear each flight individually at the gate? Or because it's booked as a through flight, if there's no space on all the flights, Will I not get an upgrade at all?
Can I ask the agent to split it up the segments?
Unfortunately no, Island Hopper can only clear as a single segment (since it has the same flight number)... and TKK-GUM is the leg that always causes problems.
Somewhere (either a TR or the Island Hopper thread) there was a story along these lines where even a GA was unable to clear segments (resulting in NRSA and/or empty seats). I believe the FA did something for the poster but when the cabin was filled with NRSA they didn't boot them.
