Should it bring in all hardcoded (model) associations when I import them?

Here is what I have and I can't pull any fields from Sequences or
PackagesSequence objects/tables

    var $uses = array('Package','Sequence','PackagesSequence');
    $extra = array(
                'recursive' => 1, //int
                'fields' => array('Package.name', 'Sequence.name'), //array
of field names
            );

     $this->Package->find('all', $extra);

I get an error that it doesn't know the Sequence table.  Thoughts?  Do I
have to recode the associations already in the models?
