Both actors are stunningly good looking. The interaction between them, Carl and James, is interesting, and unnerving. Obviously, these two men engaged in sex and slept together. (Overnight is assumed.) It is clear that James is gay and self-affirming in his gayness. Carl is searching, in fear.
Carl's insistence that he "has a wife" is his way of denying the sexual attraction he has for James. After they obviously have engaged in sex, guilt sets in on Carl. The violent punching of James' face is brutal, underscoring Carl's fear of his gay desires.
A lot of psychology is at play in this short.
