Default 20+2, standard play with AQ?

I was just reviewing some tournament hand histories and came across this hand, which I almost just skimmed over. The fold to a min re-raise caught my attention, and then I started wondering if I botched the entire hand. I guess I'm really just trying to re-examine all of my play, and this seems like the type of hand I wouldn't normally ask about so I figured I might as well get some thoughts.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (10 handed) converter

I'm switching from T1500 to T800 SNGs and folding AQs is hard to get used to. I've been limping in EP and folding to raises but a couple 10ths with TPTK should solve that.

Ok so:

1) Fold PF. If I'm MP3 instead and no limpers do I then raise?

2) Check/Fold the flop instead of bet.
