Best Answer
Yes, to "talk one's way out of" is an idiom. It means to evade negative consequences by convincing the imposer of those consequences not to do so.
Examples:
It's is worth noting that a way out is itself an idiom, meaning an avenue of escape. In a literal sense, "a way out" is any exit from a place, from a door in a room to the path out of a maze to the route out of a cave system. It is used metaphorically for any means of escaping a bad situation or dreaded consequence, comparing them implicitly to a trap or prison. So people speak of needing to find "a way out" of relationships, jobs, responsibilities, contracts, etc.
Thus to "talk one's way out" of something is to escape a situation by means of one's verbal interpersonal skills.
