sleep

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

'the rest' is the definition.
('sleep' can be a synonym of 'rest')

I don't understand the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for sleep that I've seen before include "Doze, nap" , "crash" , "Natural state of unconscious rest" , "Drop off" , "Snooze" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
