Villain should have bet the flop.

I don't necessarily disagree with this, but then, what is gained by this bet? You are way ahead or way behind here, betting QQ on an AKK flop doesn't seem to be too bright at first glance.
Note that in the actual hand, his checking encouraged his opponent to put in 1.5 BB drawing almost dead. Granted, he got outplayed, but betting the flop doesn't stop us from getting outplayed, now does it?
JJ, TT, 99... sure, you bet because it becomes more and more likely that a free card will beat you. QQ though? I don't know. It seems like the only reason to bet is because you really want to fold and want to feel better about doing it.
I'm open to being convinced otherwise. What's your argument for betting? Are you taking advantage of a leak in your opponent's game, or do you think betting is best even against a perfect opponent?
