Caption: Figure 3.

Same as Figure 1, but around the night of 2014 February 08 (MJD 56,696). The top panel inset shows the TeV flux on MJD 56,696 in 5-minute bins. A fit of the 5-minute-binned TeV light curve to a constant flux (gray dashed line) yields ﹩P({\chi }^{2})=4.2\times {10}^{-3}﹩. A vertical blue dashed line indicates the time of the Swift-XRT observation described in Section 4.
