Struggle with scene (4)
I believe the answer is:
view
'scene' is the definition.
('view' can be a synonym of 'scene')
'struggle with' is the wordplay.
'struggle' becomes 'vie' (I've seen this before).
'with' becomes 'w' (abbreviation).
'vie'+'w'='VIEW'
(Other definitions for view that I've seen before include "Perspective" , "Opinion; watch" , "Behold the scenery?" , "See" , "Natural scenery or mental attitude" .)
