CO is respectable and picked up what? He doesn't have QQ or KK for sure. A respectable player would've reraised pf with those. A respectable player also doesn't raise preflop with 55 or 22 or call with K2, Q2 or 52, so I count those out if I think he's respectable. Anyway...

Good play on the flop with 4 people in the game. You're value betting because you're 2:1 to make your flush but you're getting 3:1 on every call you get on a bet.

Nothing else to do on the turn. Good bet.

And the river... well.. all I'm saying is that he isn't a good player. If he didn't cap pf woth QQ/KK, or if he raised with 55/22/K2/Q2/52, he isn't good. Change your read on him.

Anyway, my guess is he did have QQ and chose not to cap preflop. So, maybe he is just a genius? Anyway, I take back what I said about him. I guess not capping isn't the worst play in the universe.
