“Jensen: I wasn’t a problematic child or a troubled kid, I got into about as much trouble as a normal teenager. You know, the 4 am phone call from the cops, hey we’ve got your son on the side of the road in handcuffs.
Fans: Oh, do tell!
Jensen: And of course my mom said ‘that’s impossible, my son’s asleep in his bed.’ And the officer said, Ma’am, you’d better check on that.
Mrs. Ackles: (is laughing in the back of the room)
Fan: What did you do?
Jensen: (cue innocent – and frankly adorable – face) Um, nothing. Massive case of mistaken identity.
Mrs. Ackles and the room full of fans: (are not fooled)
Jensen: Just up to no good with some friends and we got caught. But you know, you make some mistakes, you learn from them.
Fans: (look skeptical)
Jensen: (indignantly) Hey, now I have a story to tell when I’m here. So I’m actually glad it happened. So there!
Fans: (silently) Whatever.
Jensen: They were gonna let me drive home that night, but my dad was like, no, you keep him on the side of the road, I’m coming to get him. That was a long drive home….
Mr. Ackles (deadpans) He was training for the part of Dean.”
