transients---collectively nicknamed ``Spock''---were faster and
fainter than any supernova, but significantly more luminous than a
classical nova: they reached peak luminosities of $\sim10^{41}$ erg
s$^{-1}$ (M$_{AB}<-14$) in $\lesssim$5 rest-frame days, then faded
below detectability in roughly the same time span. Lens models of the
foreground cluster suggest that it is entirely plausible that the two
events are {\it spatially} coincident at the source plane, but very
unlikely that they were also {\it temporally} coincident. We find

High-cadence monitoring of the field could help to distinguish between
these hypotheses by detecting new transient episodes at or near the
\spock locations. Improvements to the lens models are also needed to

Because of the proximity of the critical curves in all models, the
predicted time delays and magnification factors are significantly
different if calculated at the model-predicted positions instead of
the observed positions. For example, in the GLEE model series
(GLEE-A (GLEE
and
GLEE-B) GLEE-var) when switching from the observed to model-predicted
positions the arrival order of the NW and SE images flips, the
expected time delay drops from tens of days to $<$1 day, and the
magnifications
decrease change by
40-60\%. 30-60\%. However, the expected
magnifications and time delays between the events still fall within
the broad ranges summarized in Table~\ref{tab:LensModelPredictions}
and shown in Figure~\ref{fig:LensModelContours}. Regardless of
whether the model predictions are extracted at the observed or
predicted positions of the \spock events, none of the lens models can
accommodate the observed
220-day 234-day time difference as purely a
gravitational lensing time delay.

and includes only 98 galaxies identified as cluster members. In this
variation the nearby cluster member galaxy is not included, so the
\spocktwo event is not intersected by a critical curve. However, the
\spockone event is approximately coincident with
a the primary
critical curve of the \macs0416 cluster. When the critical curve is
close to either \spock location, the magnifications predicted by the
CATS model are driven up to $\mu>100$. However, the time delays
remain small, on the order of tens of days, and incompatible with the
observed
220-day 234-day gap.
The WSLAP-var model evaluates whether the cluster redshift

the critical curve to intersect either or both of the \spock
locations.
The GLEE-var model is a multi-plane lens model
(Chiriv{\`i} et al.~in
prep.) that incorporates 13 galaxies with spectroscopic redshifts that
place them either in the foreground or background of the \macs0416
cluster. Figure~\ref{fig:LineOfSightLenses} marks these 13 galaxies
and highlights two of them that appear in the foreground of the \spock
host galaxy and are close to the lines of sight to the \spock
transients. Both the foreground $z=0.0557$ galaxy and the
reconstructed position of the $z=0.9397$ galaxy have a projected
separation of $<$4\arcsec from the \spocktwo transient position.
Including these galaxies in the GLEE lensing model
has a minor impact
on changes the
magnifications
at the location of HFF14Spo-NW (HFF14Spo-SE) to
$\sim-70$ ($\sim250$) and
the time
delays, and delay between the two locations to
$\sim50$ days. The line-of-sight galaxies also
results result in a shift of
the position of the critical curve--as can be seen by comparing the
GLEE-A GLEE and
GLEE-B GLEE-var models in
Figure~\ref{fig:SpockCriticalCurves}.
For the
GLEE model, incorporating these line-of-sight effects does not
substantially change the predicted magnifications or time delays, and Nonetheless, the predicted time
delays are still incompatible with the observed gap of
220 234 days
between events.
The GLAFIC-var model examines whether it is plausible for a critical
curve to intersect both \spock locations---contrary to the baseline

any clear line identifications for the three images of the \spock host

magnification) for sources at $z=1$. The location of the critical
curve varies significantly among the models, and is sensitive to many
parameters that are poorly constrained. We have explored model
variations (Methods \ref{sec:LensModelVariations}) that adjust the
cluster redshift and the masses of cluster member galaxies, and that
account for the impact of lensing perturbations from galaxies along
the line of sight.
Most Within a given model, variations that move a
critical curve closer to the position of \spockone\ would drive the
magnification of that event much higher (toward $\mu_{\rm
NW}\sim200$). This generally also has the effect of moving the
critical curve farther from \spocktwo, which would necessarily drive
its magnification downward (toward $\mu_{\rm SE}\sim10$). Our model
variations also show that it is possible to make reasonable
adjustments to the lens model parameters in order to ensure that a
critical curve intersects both of the \spock locations. Such lensing
configurations can qualitatively reproduce the observed morphology of
the \spock host galaxy, but they are disfavored by a purely
quantitative assessment of the positional strong-lensing constraints.

for the two events agree to within $\sim30\%$, which means that if

to a different light curve shape term, $\zeta$.} Adopting
\Lpk$\sim10^{41}$ erg s$^{-1}$ and

\etacar has $M_V\sim-12$ and the faintest known LBV progenitors such
as SN 2010dn have $M_V\sim-6$).
