QQ on AAx flop

Another variation on the "Aces flopping on lower pocket pair" theme. Again, I'm paralyzed and don't know what to do.

When you get reraised on the flop, AND one other player is sticking around on that reraise, I would feel fairly certain that at least one of them has the ace. Granted, one or both of them could be bluffing, but I am thinking at these limits, and the fact that one player was clearly playing with too short a stack, that they are not smart enough to slowplay the hand and trap you. Ergo, lay the queens down and let them fight it out over which one had the ace.
