Default Two-headed Giant Mill?

If one player plays Tome Scour on the opposite team, do both members put the top five cards of their deck into their graveyard?

Thanks

just whichever player you target, but if one player needs to draw a card with an empty library, the whole team loses.

No, Tome Scour targets a player, not a team. Only the player you targeted mills 5.

Tome scour says target player on it, so it only targets one player. The caster would target a player, and that player would mill the top 5. Note that the player can be anyone, including his teammate or himself.

Cards that affect both heads in a 2hg game would say things like each opponent, like Blood Tithe, or each other player, like Urborg Syphon Mage

Nope. Tome Scour says very clearly "Target player", so you target ONE opponent. Compare to things that say "Each player", or "each opponent"
