Why does this (not) work?
If I say have a gui and I want to change the text through a script this works:
script.Parent.Text = "Blah"
And this does:
Words = script.Parent Words.Text = "Blah"
But this does not:
Words = script.Parent.Text Word = "Blah"
How come?

You would be resetting the variable. You could try adding a .Value to Words but that might not work. You might just have to live with it. I know, it's the end of the world. User#11440 120 — 8y

Your indexing is wrong. The variable 'Word' is not located in the script, so it doesn't know what to do.
Words = script.Parent.Text Words = "Blah"
