'star's bedtime' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to time as well as being singular nouns.

'star's bedtime' is the wordplay.
'star's' becomes 'suns' (Sun is an example).
'bedtime' becomes 'et' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'suns'+'et'='SUNSET'
