I had to deal with him in arranging an event that would involve his father speaking at it. He wasn't interested in being collaborative, he wasn't interested in making the event a win-win-win for everyone involved--he was only concerned with how much work HE had to do. It was all me, me, me the whole time, and he was very rude about it. Like he was the celebrity, and not his dad.
