Put your code in a code block.

LocalPlayer won't work since the localscript is not inside the player

U should use GetPlayerFromCharacter() to find the player

Like this:

remove.Touched:connect(function(hit) --I'm just guessing that remove is the brick

local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent) --Finds the player
local char = player.Character -- Finds the char

char.Head.Transparency = 0.5 --Sets head's transparency to 0.5

end)

I hope this helped ;)
