Oh, well that just explains everything.
SPN Magazine, Sep/Oct 2010 Issue: What fun behind-the-scenes stories do you have from working on Supernatural?
Jake Abel: There's a great bit about the Impala at the opening of Swan Song with the car's creation being filmed. I found out from the guys in ADR [automated dialogue replacement] that there's a theory that Eric Kripke controls all. For example, did you know he controls the weather? Yeah. He'll write things in the script like, "There are two clouds in the sky," and then they'll go to film and there'll be two clouds in the sky. It's actually pretty creepy! So when Kripke wrote that whole opening thing about the assembly of the Impala, he just had the idea of what he wanted, but then it turned out for the crew researching it that there was some actual footage of the Impala being built on an assembly line. Apparently, though, it's really rare that they ever had footage of cars being built at the time, but they had the Impala, the same style and make and everything, being built. It was this creepy moment for the crew when they were like, "How on Earth...?"
... There's simply nothing to be added to that much awesome.
