Jared said that when he first joined the show, he wasn’t comfortable delivering these long, explanatory monologues. He felt they didn’t offer any opportunities for interpretation, instead being dry, necessary strings of boring sentences. In fact, his first scene filming Supernatural’s pilot was the scene at a computer, where he had to recite research and background for their case. After watching Jensen deliver exposition in the following several episodes, though, Jared saw how to insert inflection, importance and relevance into these scenes, so he felt he learned the art of exposition from Jensen. Then, with a smile, he said, “and I taught Jensen how to cry”.
