Is this a transiting planet?

  Hello--I've been at this about a week, and I've seen a couple like this before. Is that drop at the bottom of the first part of the curve a transit?

  It looks like a glitch, because it is asymmetrical. Also the raw flux jumps at exactly this point, presumably due to Kepler firing its thrusters. Compare the raw and corrected curves here https://www.cfa.harvard.edu/~avanderb/k2c4/ep211022925.html
