They are on separate reservations. The Manila Hopper has fare rules:

Obviously if 154 is late, I'm going to cancel the Manila Hopper before we leave TKK, or as soon as we land in GUM. But, I need advice if we're cutting it close.

The question is: The fare rules state "Cancel reservations before the scheduled departure time or TICKET HAS NO VALUE."

If I remember correctly, we have to be at the gate 30" before departure or we get offloaded. If we do get offloaded, but it's before scheduled departure, can I still cancel the reservation for a refund?

As far as obtaining a refund is concerned, it may be important for you to note that you do not have a connection at GUM, short or otherwise. You have two separate reservations and two separate tickets.
