I want to argue that "Wieso" can also mean "how so"? How is the Wolf -- which "normally" sleeps elsewhere -- suddenly asleep in the kitchen? The implicit implication is that someone is responsible for that happening... My impression is that "wieso" straddles a twilight world between "why" and "how". Similarly, "why" and "how" also straddle a similar twilight world.... Duo might want to note that.
