Rails Console Differing MySQL Results - mysql

Question

I am having trouble using a LEFT OUTER JOIN with Rails. I think I have my Ruby code down but when I enter it into the rails console I get one result and when I copy the produced MySQL I get another result. An entire column (value) is missing in the rails console. Why is it that the SQL is the exact same but I am getting different results? Ideally, I want the results to include the value column. As always any help would be greatly appreciated.

Only the attributes from the SecurityItem class appear in the return result. However, you can access the attributes from the joined table through the 'attributes' method.
security_items = SecurityItem.joins("LEFT OUTER JOIN security_role_permissions
ON security_role_permissions.key = security_items.key AND
security_role_permissions.role_id ='1'").select("security_items.name,
security_items.key, security_role_permissions.permission")
security_items.each { |security_item| puts security_item.attributes['permission'] }
