How did they even make this alliance? Here's what I think has been going on with the alliance. The Foot and Kraang joined forces to take down a common enemy: the Turtles. The Kraang probably figured out by now that their soldiers are no match for them Turtles and so began supplying the Foot with Robot soldiers, mutagen, and other resources to defeat them. I think this is backed up by the fact that in all of their encounters in season 2 the Kraang had never gone looking for the Turtles, it was usually the Turtles stumbling across one of their schemes that led to the fights. Now, during the invasion, once the Turtles were forced to retreat from their lair it was Shredder and the Foot's job to hunt down the Turtles while the Kraang took over New York. For his help, the Kraang would have likely promised Shredder that a portion of the Earth would remain unmutated for him to rule, revenge on Splinter, and that they would unmutate Karai. Of course as with all villain teamups, each are probably lying to the other. The Kraang are clearly using Shredder's hatred to manipulate him into doing what they want. However Shredder is not an idiot, he likely knows this already and let's the Kraang do as they wish so that his betrayal won't be seen until it's too late.
