This is probably a standard get in. However I think that bad players or lower stake players generally play too tight in these spots. This makes it closer but still I think it should be an all-in.
Also keep in mind UTG would probably not shove a monster hand, he would raise it. You are only worried about MP, but even against kings your aren't doing terrible. You for sure fold AQ. But AK is too good and especially a great hand to have three-ways.
Against JJ, QQ will win 36% so mathematically call.
Against AA or KK should not call.
Open for 20 BB could be a (semi) bluff. Call 20 BB is not a bluff. Would MP do that with QQ? You have blockers to AA and KK but I think you need to lay this down.
With only 10 BB I would call.
