We absolutely don't have to check back the turn (especially when the majority of turn cards won't be this crappy).
V2 has seen aggro whale open, us 3bet to isolate, and then he coldcalls. When we check back the flop (which we now may do if we were 3betting light and have decided to play more ABC once V2 is in the mix), he's feeling a whole lot better about his JJ-. He might even donk the turn himself thinking he's in the lead at this point, and he's much more likely to call a bet now that we've shown weakness and a street has checked thru (stacks might not be in play here).
Meanwhile the whale has barely over a PSB left. We can play for that whenever we want, again much more likely to get paid off allowing him to hit a useless pair (or induce a bluff) by letting the flop check thru.
