Apple script won’t turn off

I made my Apple script repeat the space bar for 100000 times with 0.2 delay but the problem is that it says it so quickly that I can’t click anything.I can’t force quit because it will open up bing explorer or something else and I can’t click the quit button on the Apple script.Is there anything I can do to make the Apple script quit?

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.15

If necessary you can force quit from the >Force Quit


If necessary you can force quit the Mac by holding the power button/TouchID for ~6-10 sec to force a shut down.

Reboot into SafeBoot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262

Takes noticeable longer to get to the login screen, does a 5-15 minute disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, etc. Login and do any house cleaning you need to do here.
