I call this flop and fold this turn.

Why raise the flop? You are against several opponents and you don't even have A-high. And the flop bettor showed aggression preflop. And the flop is straight and flush coordinated. The pot is big so you have the odds to call with overcards, but also because the pot is big you are not going to be able to bluff out a win; you will likely have to showdown a hand. I call the flop and fold any non-Q non-K turn (I'd consider calling the turn if a spade falls for the Q-high flush draw). When the BB wakes up on the turn it just gives you more incentive to fold. He probably just made a straight flush draw or donked you with something weak (though he probably has a better than your hand), but possibly he was slowplaying a set or straight, and possibly made a straight or two pair. In any case, I think SB has something and is not folding.
