Scoped query fails when same query from console works

Why would using a scoped query fail when querying directly works perfectly?

My Model:

class Score < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :query
  belongs_to :pull#, :counter_cache => true

  scope :latest, find_by_sql("SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM scores ORDER BY created_at DESC) s  GROUP BY query_id")
end

Firing up the console

localhost:~/code/myproject[master]% rails c

Loading development environment (Rails 3.0.1)
>> Score.latest
NoMethodError: undefined method `includes_values' for #<Array:0x7f28f2cb0e18>
        from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-3.0.1/lib/active_record/relation/spawn_methods.rb:10:in `send'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-3.0.1/lib/active_record/relation/spawn_methods.rb:10:in `merge'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-3.0.1/lib/active_record/relation/spawn_methods.rb:9:in `each'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-3.0.1/lib/active_record/relation/spawn_methods.rb:9:in `merge'

        from (irb):1

but using that same query directly works without a hitch.
