Steve Castillo

Steve Castillo is a fictional expatriate in the dramatic miniseries Noh Matta Wat! He is played by Belizean actor Curtis Gillett.

Biography

Before the series

Not much is known about Castillo other than what has been revealed on the series. At some point before the story's timeline, Castillo was romantically involved with Margaret Diego. Castillo conceived a child with Margaret, daughter Lisani, but left Belize before he got to know his daughter properly. He settled in the United States and acquired a modest fortune, though how he got it and whether it was legal remains unknown. Eventually, Castillo sets his sights on returning to Belize.

In the series

In the first episode, Castillo is seen driving around a greatly changed Belize City, marveling at how much the tiny city has grown and changed since he left. Eventually, he drives near BTL Park on Princess Margaret Drive and spots two beautiful young women, revealed to be Lisani Diego and best friend Rosanna Ramirez. Rosanna, who apparently knows Steve, begins to converse with him while Lisani hangs back. They get into his car and end up at a local nightclub. Steve does not know Lisani is his daughter and begins flirting with her, though she is not impressed by him. Eventually they go home and Margaret stands ready at the door-only to be shocked at the sight of Steve standing there with her daughter!

Things happen fast after that. Margaret admits tearfully to her daughter that Steve is her father and that their relationship was covered up to save Margaret embarrassment. Lisani is thoroughly angry and becomes even angrier when she finds that her grandmother put Margaret up to it. She vows not to associate with Steve, and Rosanna loyally breaks up with Steve too.

After Randy is imprisoned falsely, Steve attempts to reconcile with his daughter, unsuccessfully, and informs her he has to leave. Apparently, elements in the United States want Castillo dead and have hired local thugs to kill him. Castillo survives a fight with the hired hands in the last episode and heads south for Honduras with no explanation to the Diegos.

He is not seen in Season Two, though one of Lisani's coworkers claims she spent time with him and conceived a child by him (later retracted). A news cast in the last episode claims Steve's attackers have escaped jail.

He may likely return for the new season, based on teaser footage aired during Season 2 reruns. He also is known to love puppies and he likes all the hoes.

Character

Steve is in every way a man of the world. He is fascinated by material things and lives to impress others. His ambitions often get him into hot water with other characters. His is one of two characters universally distrusted by the Diego family, the other being Clifford Rowland. Margaret clearly regrets her relationship with Steve and more so regrets conceiving Lisani with him, though not the child herself.
