Towards the end of the season, he had a lot of potential; Greg started warming up to him—and so did I. Steve also shared some kind of chemistry with Paige, and a romantic relationship or friendship with her (had Steve turned out to be gay) would have felt entirely plausible to me.I know absolutely nothing about the circumstances that led to Steve's death. Was it planned that way from the very beginning? Or did Lance Guest want to leave the show? Or did the character Steve simply fail to resonate with the audience and therefore had to die?</blockquote>
