The title refers to the task of taking immigrants back home, which was typically a man's job to carry out, hence The Homesman.
Mary Bee Cuddy is a 31-year-old
spinster from New York, a former teacher who journeyed to the Midwest for more opportunity. She is an active member of the small farming community she now calls home in
Loup City,
Nebraska Territory, and has significant financial prospects and sizable land ownership. Though seemingly strong and independent, inside she is suffering from depression from
isolation, and after being rejected by potential husbands for being too "plain". She proposes to a man named Bob Giffen and sings to him on her makeshift piano, and he turns her down.
After a harsh winter, three young women—Arabella Sours, Theoline Belknapp, and Gro Svendsen—begin to show signs of insanity due to the hardships they faced. One lost her children to
diphtheria, one killed her own child, and one was raped and suffers a breakdown after her mother dies. Reverend Dowd calls upon one of their husbands to escort the women eastward to a church in
Hebron, Iowa that cares for the mentally ill. Unsatisfied with any of the men's potential, Mary Bee volunteers for the task alone because she is unhappy with her life and wants an adventure, and Dowd reluctantly agrees. Mary Bee also feels strongly for the care of these women, knowing that she herself is battling mental health issues.
Cuddy encounters George Briggs, a
claim jumper, who was about to be
lynched for using another man's land as his own. Sniveling and begging to be helped, Briggs appeals to Cuddy for help. She frees him in return for his help escorting the women. He immediately casts doubt on the job and tells her that he considers himself free to leave at any time. Cuddy uses the promise of $300 waiting for him at their destination to persuade him to remain with her as they make the journey. Briggs' experience comes in handy when fending off hostile Indians and when one of the women wanders off and is taken in by a wandering man. However, when they discover a desecrated grave of an eleven-year-old girl, Cuddy wants to stop and restore the grave, while Briggs vows to push on. Cuddy agrees to catch up with him, and after restoring the grave sets out on horseback. Riding all night, she eventually wakes and discovers that her horse has returned her to the grave.
Finally catching up to Briggs, Cuddy tells him that they make a great team and suggests that they marry. Briggs, like all the previous men, rejects Cuddy on the grounds of her looks and bossy nature, but when a naked Cuddy propositions him later that night, he agrees and the two have sex. The next morning, Briggs is devastated to find that Cuddy has committed suicide from her worsening depression from being humiliated by Briggs and then rejected by him, and her religious beliefs going against sleeping with a man before marriage. Briggs buries her body and lashes out in anger at Sours, Belknapp, and Svendsen. Discovering that Cuddy had his money with her the entire time, Briggs takes a horse and leaves the three women behind to their own devices. But when the trio follow him on foot, one of them almost drowning in the river crossing, he returns and pledges to care for them until Iowa.
Briggs seeks food and shelter at a hotel belonging to Aloysius Duffy, who informs him that they have no rooms available for them despite the hotel being completely abandoned. Angry and bitter after all his hardship, Briggs lashes out at Duffy, whose men and Briggs threaten each other with guns. Briggs leaves, but then returns that night alone on horseback. He sends away the young cook, instructing her not to look back. He uses the wall lamps to set the hotel on fire, and then shoots Duffy in the foot when he tries to get downstairs to escape. Briggs takes the roasted pig to feed himself and the ladies, and exits the hotel leaving all inside to be burned alive.
Briggs finally reaches Iowa, passing the women into the care of Altha Carter, the wife of a church reverend. He informs her of Cuddy's death but does not disclose the true cause. He then suggests marriage to young Tabitha Hutchinson after feeling guilty about not taking Mary Bee's proposal, but then decides against it and leaves the young girl be. Instead, he makes a headstone for Cuddy's grave and boards a barge as he departs. He meets a group of musicians and begins taunting the men on the far bank as he drunkenly dances and fires his weapons, and as the barge departs, one of the workers kicks Mary Bee's headstone into the river.
