Mac's Move

I didn't find the best move at the time, but I won nonetheless, because my opponent blundered and allowed me to mate him. It's White to move. What is white's best move and what is black's best response?

I think that black's best response is to play...I dont see any good replies for black, LOL

Qd2 there doesn't seem to be any way to stop mate in three except by 1... Qxe5 which loses a queen for a bishop and with it the game. _________________ I know you believe you understand what you think I just said, but you may not realize what I implied is not what you inferred.
