Default QQ Donked into on the flop

So I am getting back into 50NL and I am having trouble, and this is the kind of situation that gives me trouble. I don't have any reads on the other players, but I am pretty sure that if anyone is paying attention, I probably look weakish.

FTP, 50NL 6-max, 6 handed.
I have 50 and both villians cover.

Hero is dealt Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] UTG+1

Preflop:
UTG limps, Hero raises to 2.5, 1 fold, Button calls, blinds fold, UTG calls.

Flop (~ $8, 3 players) K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG bets 7, <font color="red"> Hero ??? </font> <font color="blue"> </font> <font color="blue"> </font>

<font color="blue"> If I call, I need to know why. If I raise, I am pretty much bluffing right? And if I fold, does that make me really weak? What does this flop bet mean? Thanks in advance.</font>

The flop bet is a set, flush draw or a king imo. I'd fold here. There is a player behind you and if you raise it's pretty much a bluff.

Fold. There are practically no hands you're ahead of that would do this kind of a bet first-to-act on the flop. If any, maybe the 56 or 67 of spades, which you will also hate being against. Since you have no reads on this guy he might be holding anything from KJ to AK or a set.

This would be an obvious fold in my opinion.

Standard fold. Thank him for not letting you c-bet.

Remember this isn't heads-up. Pretty easy fold for me.

PFR got two callers, and you're in the middle. UTG leads into the raiser and another player, so second pair no goot.
