Score system using prefabs in C#

I'm trying to make a score system where a prefabs cloner creates targets which you can't let be hit by a object that travels horizontally in the screen, if the prefabs is hit, a point is deducted for a certain amout of "lives". The problem is that i can't link this prefab the gameobject or the script used to manipulate the UI, nor could i make it use the variables on other scripts by using:

scoreScript scoreScript = GetComponent();

GameObject score = GameObject.FindWithTag("Score");

the two scripts (both the prefab and the score controller) right are like that:

the target's script:

 using UnityEngine;
 using UnityEngine.UI;
 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 
 public class loliScript : MonoBehaviour {
     public int speed = 2;
 
     private void Start(){
         Rigidbody2D lolibody = GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>();
         lolibody.velocity = new Vector2(0, -speed);                
     }
     void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other)
     {
         if (other.tag == "Car") 
         {
             Destroy(this.gameObject);
         }
     }
     void OnBecameInvisible() {
         Destroy (gameObject);
     }
 }

and the Score Controller script:

 using UnityEngine;
 using UnityEngine.UI;
 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 
 public class scoreScript : MonoBehaviour {
     public int score = 0;
     public int record = 0;
     public int lolis = 5;
     public Text txScore;
     public Text txRecord;
     public Text txLolis;
 
     void Update(){
         txScore.text = "Score: " + score;
         txRecord.text = "Record: " + record;
         txLolis.text = "Lolis: " + lolis;
     }
 }

I've been trying to make this work for the last 6 hours, and every single tutorial i try to follow doesn't work. What exactly am i doing wrong?
