As for “nothing escapes from a black hole,” that depends on a lot of things, mostly on how close you let yourself get to it. Get too close, and there will always be a point where it’s pull will become stronger than the thrust you can provide to escape it. But you’d have to get seriously close to its event horizon for that to start becoming a serious danger, unless you’re just adrift and have no means of thrusting away at all.
Otherwise, safely entering an orbit around a black hole and then leaving again would be a relatively simple affair with the right engines and sufficient fuel. In the movies they always portray black holes sucking up whole solar systems the second it appears in one, but more often than not, the black hole could theoretically fly right through a star system and not suck anything of note in at all unless something’s directly in its path. Might perturb a few orbits of course, depending on how close anything veers to it, but in the galactic scale, that’s a relatively minor thing.

Uh oh. Break out the doo doo pan and the freebreeze. I’m afraid there is probably a galactic mess in there.

Probably the Evil Cats experimenting.

I’ll bet the cats had something to do with it.
