Some bothered at that point (5)
I believe the answer is:
there
'at that point' is the definition.
(over there)
'some bothered' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'THERE' is hidden in the letters of 'bothered'.
(Other definitions for there that I've seen before include "Yonder" , "In that respect" , "please feel reassured!" , "It's said to convey sympathy" , "Consoling word" .)
