What do you guys think about flatting the $20?
The flatting is pretty bad. You're oop and there are a lot of bad cards in the deck for your hand. You're new to the table, so you can't reliably expect either villain to overplay one pair on the turn or fire a second barrel on the turn. I assume your plan was to call the $20, then donk the turn on most safe cards. But there are a lot of turn cards that will kill your action. Better off raising to $75 now, inviting the min-raiser to get cute with position.
22 is definitely in the BB's range, and if he was in any position other than the BB, I think I can find a fold here. But, not knowing whether he overvalues two pair, this fold would require one hell of a physical read. Like you said, there's more possible Q2s and 102s than 22s. If he thinks two pair is the nuts (and lots of rec 1/2 players do), then this is an ideal spot for you.
