Logline

An accident with an experimental quantum probability field causes everyone on the USS Enterprise to break uncontrollably into song, but the real danger is that the field is expanding and beginning to impact other ships—allies and enemies alike.

Addendum: after watching it again I realized that (for the first time?) several male background extras were wearing the dress-type uniform variant that only the women used to wear.

Are we getting the unisex skant back? Hell yeah! I love this show.

I missed the skants? How could I have missed the skants?

They can both be seen in the corridors. The first one (in a red uniform) walks by Ortegas when the ship is hit by the energy field at the beginning. The other one (in a blue uniform) walks by Number One and Kirk during their song.

There may be more but those are the two that I spotted.

Yep, there they are. It’s less noticable because everyone wears pants/leggings under them, unlike in TOS/TNG, where a skirt/skant meant bare legs. The effect is almost more like a long tunic or jacket.

Maybe Pike keeps the ship’s environmental settings a little colder than the others, so nobody wants to free the knees.

Boimler wears a skant a bunch of times in Lower Decks.
