A "Ticket" hasMany "Options"

I want to paginate my data such that I can (in the view) show each a row of:

[ Ticket | opt 1 |       | opt 3 ]
[ Ticket | opt 1 | opt 2 | opt 3 ]
[ Ticket |       | opt 2 | opt 3 ]

etc. Some options may be present some may not.

To be able to accomplish as much of this in the model/controller as possible, I need to pass some order to the "options" model (and possibly some grouping), and I can't seem to figure that out!

Array
(
    [Ticket] => Array
        (
            [id] => xxxxx
            [name] => my ticket
        )
    [Option] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [id] => xxxxxxx
                    [optionnumber] => 5
                    [val] => no
                )
            [1] => Array
                (
                    [id] => xxxxxxx
                    [optionnumber] => 2
                    [val] => tuesday
                )
            [2] => Array
                (
                    [id] => xxxxxxx
                    [optionnumber] => 5
                    [val] => something
                )
        )

)

as you may be able to see, the options arrays are not sorted by their ID, which I'd like. Further more, it would be even better if instead of an indexed array, the options array index was the id (I think grouping may acheive this...) but how do I get the optinos through to the associated model? so far I've tried things like:

$this->paginate = array(
    'Ticket'  =>array('limit' => 20,'fields'=>array('Ticket.*')),
    'Option'  =>array('order'=>array('Option.optionnumber'=>'asc')));
