Loves me some puzzles. OK, I think I have the answer. ActiveRecord::Base has a line in it:
delegate :select, :group, :order, :reorder, :except, :limit, :offset, :joins, :where, :preload, :eager_load, :includes, :from, :lock, :readonly, :having, :create_with, :to => :scoped The method scoped() is defined in ActiveRecord::NamedScope::ClassMethods, and ActiveRecord::NamedScope is included in ActiveRecord::Base. Far from obvious, but there it is.
