Stare stupidly (4)

I think it could be either:

gawp

gape

'stare stupidly' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for gape that I've seen before include "Stare at page" , "wide opening" , "Appear amazed" , "Hang wide open" , "Gawp" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the Penny Press, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and the Sydney Morning Herald.
