Could always have his parents work as his agent and his accountant respectively and they are just too caught up in their work to be home or pay attention to him, etc? If you want to keep it relatively drama free.

Far as CR I'd like to hit you up with my no good role model here laughs. Tony is an hotshot author! So could be the tv series Conner is doing is an adaption of one of Tony's novels and tony visits the set frequently to help sith ~creative direction~? Or idk if you go wih the above for his parents they could also be Tony's accountant or PR person. Stuff. Basically I am here to influence Conner with an irresponsible adult :, ). Let's plot!
