Default KK in \"trouble\" preflop

Just sat down at table, so no reads. Villain is 11.5/4.3, so pretty tight. My problem here is how to get villain to make a mistake. His reraise is huge, so I really suspect he has got the goods. Is there any way I can find out without losing my stack? If he hasn't got AA, how can I get him to make a mistake with QQ without making me have to guess on the flop? He will probably fold anything but AA/KK to a reraise on my part, but only calling makes me have to pretty much guess where I am on the flop. How would you play?

I'm not a fan of letting this go, he could have AK, QQ, JJ. Who knows? Just call and see what his move is on the flop.

Calling with the intention of checking the flop and moving all-in when he bets? That probably makes me lose my entire stack to AA, but maybe thats somethinig that is acceptable in this spot? At least I will make some money of QQ and worse, even if I don't stack em.
