Default Small Pairs & Weak Suited Aces - To Move or Not to Move...

I have a really tough time in these spots. Your comments on this 6 hand quiz would be much appreciated...

Tourney is the UB $200k Guaranteed.

1) Blinds 150/300 - MP3 just sat down, CO is 19/16/1.5

MP3 (t5095)
CO (t16950)
Button (t5725)
SB (t2880)
Hero (t8120)
UTG (t21765)
UTG+1 (t2980)
UTG+2 (t11795)
MP1 (t6145)
MP2 (t7010)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 4, 4.
5 folds</font>, MP3 raises to t850</font>, CO calls t850, 2 folds</font>. Hero?

2) One lap later...

MP3 (t5045)
CO (t22820)
Button (t5700)
SB (t4830)
Hero (t6870)
UTG (t24345)
UTG+1 (t15270)
UTG+2 (t11095)
MP1 (t6695)
MP2 (t5710)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 5, 5.
6 folds</font>, CO raises to t825</font>, 2 folds</font>. Hero?

3) Blinds now 200/400.

MP3 (t4820)
CO (t23720)
Button (t6100)
SB (t4230)
Hero (t4745)
UTG (t25495)
UTG+1 (t17920)
UTG+2 (t9645)
MP1 (t6945)
MP2 (t4760)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, 5.
UTG calls t400, UTG+1 calls t400, 6 folds</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t1600) A, T, K (4 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG bets t1200</font>, UTG+1 calls t1200, SB folds. Hero?

My initial plan was to get my chips in against one player but after this action what can I beat?
