I believe the answer is:

early bath

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

'result of seeing red' is the definition.
(as in a footballer seeing a red card)

'aquae sulis?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'aquae sulis?' could be 'bath' (I've seen this before) and 'bath' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'early' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'in' is the link.
