If you get the profiles using something like profiles = Profile.where( profileable_type => "Admin") then for each profile in the collection you can do profile.roles to get all the roles for that profile. Alternatively use :includes( :profiles ) rather than join and specify a where for the the profilable type which will give you a collection of Roles.
