What is the third choice in tic tac toe?

Would my nickname Navy Bean help me get in the navy?
It's a small thing, but details matter. They say put everything on a resume. I got this in high school. I graduated this year. I don't know why I got this name. Just because I eat navy bean soup. Can I use this to my advantage. Will it help me become a SEAL?

Doing a mini-play based on an episode of Frasier?
In my theater class in high school, the upperclassmen become directors of mini plays that usually have about 4-5 characters and the play lasts for 7-20 minutes. The lowerclassmen are the people in the play. I wanted to take an episode from a tv series called Frasier, and use the transcript for a play I would be directing in the fall. (My Coffee with Niles is the name of the episode, 1x24.) Do you think I would be allowed to take the transcript and use it, while still giving credit to the writers/show/ect...? Based on what you know so far, do you think I could do that?
