Bonus for one in the crowd (5)
I believe the answer is:
extra
'bonus' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for extra that I've seen before include "Actor's part" , "Accessory" , "Minor person screened" , "Maybe wide" , "(Theatrical) spear carrier" .)
