bach

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'he scored' is the definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'heroin with bianca occasionally' is the wordplay.
'heroin' becomes 'H' (H is a slang term for heroin).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'occasionally' means one should take alternating letters (letters taken at regular intervals or occasions).
The alternate letters of 'bianca' are 'bac'.
'h' put after 'bac' is 'BACH'.
