angelo

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

'he' is the definition.

'alone moves out around midnight' is the wordplay.
'moves' indicates an anagram.
'out' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'around midnight' becomes 'g' (the middle letter in 'night'. I am not sure about the 'around' bit.).
'alone' with letters rearranged gives 'anelo'.
'anelo' placed around 'g' is 'ANGELO'.
