Unfulfilled fancy (4)

I believe the answer is:

hope

(Other definitions for hope that I've seen before include "virtue he needs?" , "The last thing in Pandora's Box" , "Something wished for" , "Aspiration" , "English-born US comedian, d. 2003" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday and the Newsday.com.
