ParticleEmitters have properties that require specific datatypes. The reasoning behind this correlates with the lifetime of the particle :: by taking in a NumberSequence instead of just a number, the particle can have different transparencies at different parts of its life.

Use the NumberSequence.new constructor

function Eat()
	script.Parent.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 75
	script.Parent.Parent.Head.Trail.Transparency = NumberSequence.new(.4)
	wait(5)
	script.Parent.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16
	script.Parent.Parent.Head.Trail.Transparency = NumberSequence.new(1)
	wait(0.01)
	script.Parent:Destroy()
end

script.Parent.Activated:connect(Eat)
