Default Flopped set, ugly turn.....help!

This hand was played by a friend. Whilst I normally respect his advice, in this case there is some disagrement upon how best to proceed. Adjudication appreciated.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Button ($0)
SB ($14.49)
BB ($22.13)
Hero ($50)
MP ($25.65)
CO ($36.61)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $2</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls $2, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>.

Flop: ($4.75) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $3.5</font>, CO calls $3.50.

Turn: ($11.75) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

How should hero proceed for the rest of the hand?

Dirty turn card... I can't see anything but check and call if he gives you odds to boat up on the river, then try and get allin obv. Some players like to check behind on the turn when there draws hit as they think (sometimes correctly) that there river bets are more likely to get paid off if whereas you may fold to a turn bet.

I think betting and checking are both okay. I probably would bet.

FWIW, you do, probably, still have the best hand.

i would still bet the turn against most players. its not like heart draws and J9 are the only things that call you on the flop. kinda need to know something about villain to say what's best though.
