Let $P$ be the foot of the perpendicular from the point $A(1, 2, 2)$ on the line $L: \frac{x-1}{1} = \frac{y+1}{-1} = \frac{z-2}{2}$. Let the line $\overrightarrow{r} = (-\hat{i} + \hat{j} - 2\hat{k}) + \lambda(\hat{i} - \hat{j} + \hat{k})$,$\lambda \in R$,intersect the line $L$ at $Q$. Then $2(PQ)^2$ is equal to:
