Lucy sends Don to shoot Kira Klay's corpse, but Kira looks all too
lively to him. Don also gets a visit from Prince Tyreese, but it's not
exactly a courtesy call. Meanwhile, Holt looks for ways to help Julia,
and Willa shows journalistic spunk in tracking down dirt on a Hollywood
power couple known as "Blogan".
"Dirt Now" is about to launch, and Lucy needs a cover story. Lucy
suspects that drugs made an ailing Christian-pop star sick and
dispatches Don to get the dirt. Meanwhile, Holt is courted by a major
producer while Julia has a hard time back on the set of her sitcom.
Lucy blackmails basketball star Prince Tyreese into helping her track
down a missing rap star; Lucy and Leo's mother announces her plans to
re-marry on the anniversary of their father's suicide.

Trivia
Dirt was the ninth drama series pilot shot for FX. Matthew Carnahan, Courteney Cox, and David Arquette served as the show's executive producers, with Thea Mann producing for Cox and Arquette's Coquette Productions, and Touchstone Television and FX co-producing the series.
As Holt takes off his shirt the Virescit Vulnere Virtus "tattoo" is clearly seen as 3 seperate lines of text. A couple of seconds later, when he lays his shirt down and is dragging Julia out, the tattoo looks more like a set of scrolls around a pole with a line of text below it. A second later after the camera cuts to the woman bystander leaving her car & then cuts back to Holt it reverts back to the 3 line Virescit Vulnere Virtus "tattoo."
Although Dirt is set in Los Angeles, Prince Tyreese doesn't play for the Lakers or the Clippers. Instead he plays for the the Los Angeles Rock.
Holt McLaren has a tattoo on his right arm that says "Virescit Vulnere Virtus", which is Latin for "Courage grows strong at the wound."
The ruthless tabloid editor Lucy Spiller, who's masterful at using threats and manipulation to dig up dirt, aided by resourceful paparazzo Don Konkey. Lucy zeroes in on struggling actor Holt McLaren, who needs favorable publicity and whose rising-star girlfriend, Julia Mallory, is well-connected.
