Sam is the other half of the Freelance Police. He is considered the "good cop" in the team. Sam is the first character seen in the intro. He appears on a far balcony, adjusts his tie and leaves in a style parodying the G-Man from Valve's series Half Life. Max sometimes says "I feel like Sam would want me to call.... I fold." basically saying he would ignore Sam. He became a player in Poker Night 2.

Sam was originally a comic book character with Max as his side-kick. They moved onto TV animation before settling on the Point and Click adventure game they are now. Sam tends to adjust his hat and tie at certain points in the game. When it comes to violence, Sam isn't the dog to do it, he relies on Max to be the "bad cop" and deal attack. This is shown on Season 1 Episode 3 when Sam lets Max attack Leonard the cheater and Indian poker. Sam was the only playable character in all the Sam and Max games until The Devil's Playhouse where Max's psychic power can be used.

Revision as of 01:36, 3 April 2013

Several characters besides the main four make appearances.

Bluster Blaster

Bluster Blaster is visible in the background. If Strong Bad is not the last to be knocked out of the game, he will wander off to play on him. Max also watches Strong Bad should he be busted out right after.

Series Information.

Bluster Blaster is a sentient arcade machine and a former member of the C.O.P.S., a group of outdated machines that assist Sam and Max by acting as navigators. He was built by Sam back in 1980 when Sam was a little boy. The older Sam had to find the new A.I. chip which makes Bluster Blaster the mean machine you see in the present; This is shown in Season 2 Episode 4 when you visit Stinky's using the Time Travel Elevator. Back then, Bluster Blaster was more "motivational" than aggressive, which you see him as in the rest of the seasons.

He is also a musician, singing the C.O.P.S. Motivational Song with the rest of the C.O.P.S. Sam encourages him, though it begins to annoy Max.

In Sam and Max: Season 3, you can see Bluster Blaster has suffered a mental breakdown. You track him down to a warehouse, where he sounds heavily sedated. When looking through the future goggles you can see that he ends up in space, though it is never revealed how.

Flint Paper

Flint Paper appears at the bar, and Max mentions him a lot. After Tycho is beaten he will go and sit with him and have drinks. When Max loses he will sometimes say that he will need to go and crack some skulls to earn back the money he just lost like Flint does when he is low on cash.

Series Information

Flint Paper is a Private Eye that works in the office next to Sam and Max and is usually seen in a fight when Sam and Max walk by. Flint is one of the few people whom Max admires. Sam uses the knowledge that Flint Paper gave him to try and track down the scumbag who stole Max's brain. He uses different speeches that Flint taught to try and get the perpetrators to talk.

Momma Bosco

Momma Bosco is from the Telltale Sam and Max games. She can be seen in the introduction sitting in the back with Stinky. Also, Tycho asks rude questions about her to Max.

Series Information

Ms Bosco was introduced in the Sam and Max season two episode Chariots of the Dogs. She is a strong-willed female inventor and an adamant radical Feminist. She ran a store called "Bosco's Guns and Baby Needs" which sold (apparently) only those types of two products. After a man had "trashed" her store, she hired Flint Paper's partner to track the hooligan down.

Her hatred of patriarchy lead her to make an in vitro fertilization machine (nicknamed "The Babymaker") that requires any sort of DNA sample (in the episode it was featured, Sam and Max collected spit samples) from two subjects. She made clear in the past that if she were to have a child, she would have a daughter ("a perfect little angel"). Ironically in the future, she had a son (who's father was hinted to be president John F. Kennedy) who she cares about deeply. Worried that her son Bosco works too hard, she sends him an alarm clock every Christmas in hope that he would find time to visit her; Bosco, in his paranoia, assumes that the parcels in fact contain time bombs.

Monty Muzzle

Monty Muzzle is from the Telltale game Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures. He can be seen by the bookshelves in the introduction.

Pom Pom

Pom Pom makes a cameo in the beginning at the same table as the players and apparently lost in a previous game. He wears a poker visor similar to the one that was obtained by pre-ordering the game.

Series Information

Pom Pom was one of the first characters in the Homestar Runner series appearing as Homestar's best friend in the original book. He only "speaks" in bubbling noises and has about twenty girlfriends.

Reginald Van Winslow

Reginald Van Winslow, known mostly as Winslow serves as the dealer. Winslow also gives the player a tour and brief history lesson during the intro. He's in a different outfit in this game.

Series Information

Winslow first appeared in Tales of Monkey Island: Chapter 1: Launch of the Screaming Narwhal as the captain of the titular ship. The game's hero Guybrush Threepwood is able to use his wits to blast Winslow off the deck thus becoming the new captain. Winslow, not wanting to leave the Narwhal went on to serve as Guybrush's first mate and most loyal crew member to date, even saving Guybrush's life. (Or unlife given that he was a zombie at the time.)
