You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? i want the speed pad that i made in my game to stop after a couple of seconds
  2. **What is the issue? i want to stop after a while and it wont
-- script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
 local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
 humanoid.WalkSpeed = 50
end)

there is my script

Add a wait in the script then set their walkspeed back to normal.

I also suggest adding a debounce and checking if the humanoid actually exists.

Here is some example code:

local debounces = {}

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")

    --// The part hitting the script's parent might not be a character so we should check. 
    if (humanoid and not debounces[humanoid]) then
        --// we also have a debounce so an individual character should only be able to
        --// get speed every 10 seconds (immediately after their speed is over)
        debounces[humanoid] = true

        humanoid.WalkSpeed = 50 --// new speed
        wait(10) --// wait 10 seconds
        humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16 --// default walkspeed

        debounces[humanoid] = nil
    end
end)

it ended up not working idk whats wrong

#4 
local debounce = false
local theWait = 5 --Change to whatever you want.
local newSpeed = 50

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
  if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
     if not debounce then
       debounce = true
       hit.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 50
       wait(theWait)
       hit.Parent.Humanoid.WalkSpeed = 16 --16 is default walkspeed
       debounce = false
        end
     end
end)

If you meant that the event should not work anymore then you can store it in a variable.

local TouchEvent = script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
  --whatever you want
end)

wait(10) --Wait 10 seconds until it dont work no more

TouchEvent:Disconnect()
