Dang, I was hoping this was the return of Secret. I want my Secret back.

I can sorta see that. I was more thinking that it showed James working to overcome his own fears of change, and learning to rely on others for help. And that, in doing so, he becomes protected against the lies of the easy solution. But that's just sort of the background theme I had in my head; any interpretation is a valid one to the reader, after all.
This twist feels like it contradicts the "you don't need depression to be you" thing from an earlier. Not necessarily on a textual level, since depression cure and self replacement seem to be separate, but still on a conceptual (/thematic?) level.
