TVGuide.com: Were wewe extra-nervous doing Ruby and Sam’s upendo scene, knowing that the boys get precious few of them?

Cortese: There were two things at play. One, I figured they’re not going to be looking at me anyway; they’re going to be looking at Jared. And two, I was zaidi nervous because he is so big and so tough! [Laughs] Jared’s muscles… I mean, his arm is like the size of my body!"

TVGuide.com: That scene just cued up here on my DVD player… Look at wewe two!
Cortese: [Laughs] I know…. That was fun. I’m going to be one hated girl!"

On his relationship with former Supernatural co-star Genevieve Cortese:
“Tonight she’s at her bridal kuoga in Los Angeles with my mother, her mother, my sister, my sister-in-law, my nephew, her sister. It’s tough to go, ‘Hey baby, I upendo you. I wish I was there, but I’m 1,500 miles away and I’m not gonna talk to wewe for a few hours. I miss you.’ Those are the sacrifices, but if I didn’t work so hard and she didn’t work so hard, we wouldn’t be in this position, we wouldn’t have met each other in the first place, so wewe just have to be grateful for what you’ve done and how wewe got there"
