It's playerGui not starterGui. Also, you are supposed to put these in a screen GUI. new structure:

1-- PlayerGui
2----ScreenGui
3------Button
4--------LocalScript(Below)
5------TextBox
6--------TextLabel

01local sp = script.Parent
02 
03button = sp
04player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
05 
06msg = player.PlayerGui.ScreenGui.TextBox.TextLabel
07 
08msg.Visible=false
09 
10function Talk()
11        player.Character.Torso.Anchored=false
12        msg.Visible=true
13        wait(3)
14        msg.Text="Logan: Nice to see you again."
15        wait(3)
16        msg.Text="Mr.Clark: We have bad news."
17        wait(2)
18        msg.Text="Mr.Clark: Even though you just came out of the military..."
19        wait(5)
20        msg.Text="Mr.Clark: You are joining back."
21        wait(3)
22        msg.Text="Logan: Bu-but, why?"
23        wait(3)
24        msg.Text="Mr.Clark: A year ago, Captain.Mackintosh was kidnapped by the enemies."
25        wait(4)
26        msg.Text="Mr.Clark: We just found out now currently in 2014"
27        wait(3)
28        msg.Text="Logan: Oh s***!!, is he alright!?!"
29        wait(3.1)
