Probably won't play TARGET, and here is proof why: I call. A cannot see the middle player not raising on the turn looking at a powerfully drawish board with a set or two big pair. Why allow newly minted flush or straight draws behind him (or you, if you are semi-bluffing) to draw cheaply. More likely is the hope that you are making a move with a draw and missed, and he can push you off your second-barrel bluff attempt. Regardless, editors would have made it: Thanks to the early payers.
