"Slip some money into her pocket when she opens the window and turns away.":
"I wait for the tall, raven haired woman to open her window, then as soon as she as done with this trivial task, I expertly let five silver coins fall into her left pocket. Then, I make a bold move."
"I approach the front door, the oak stained with time, my face covered best I could, I knock twice. She soon answers."
W "Oh, um... good evening Sir, what appears to be the matter?"
L "Well you see, fair maiden, you hast betrothed me to no end with the most heinous of crimes. Theft!"
W "I.. I.. What? Begging your pardon, but, I have done no such thing, I have not left my home all evening..."
L "Then, kindly reach into your pockets, show me what is inside them if you are so innocent as you claim."
W "Very well then!"
"She digs into her right pocket, a smug look on her face. Suddenly."
W "Egads. No, I am no thief! Please, there be some misunderstanding! Don't call the guards, please... I may not see the light of day again if this were to surface!"
L "I reassure you, if you give me those coins, and offer me a night's rest in your humble abode, my lips shall remain sealed..."
"I awake, after being well rested, slightly guilty over my actions but as pay no heed to this, as I say my thanks and claim that I shall keep this under-wraps to the woman. After this trivial matter is dealt with, I head to the castle pathway, over the dirt and dust until a more grandiose footpath meets my feet."
"My brief arrival to this quaint village has gone mostly unnoticed, a few of the folk that wander down to the square with crops, meat and livestock do so with a brisk pace, in order to set up what I can only assume is the marketplace. I open my pocket watch, the time is a quarter past eight in the morn, I am making good pace. I take time to myself to wave to those in market stalls, as they start a long and busy day, much like myself. It is in my best interest to create the illusion that I am friendly to these people, so that no suspicion is aroused by any awkwardness emanating from my personality or body language. A gentleman, in his late forties, strikes up a conversation with me as I approach the dirt path towards the castle."

In your code, the last line of dialogue has 4 spaces of indentation and the line with the jump statement has 6 spaces without a reason; it should have the same indentation as the former line.
Also, usually, in python there are used 4 spaces for every level of indentation, and not 2.
