I have a different answer. They technically already formed one with Brick early non-merge. They've also teamed up in numerous non-merge challenges, so the alliance was inferred from there. Scott has also helped Lightning with handling tougher members of his separate alliance (e.g. Courtney) so it's tough to pinpoint when exactly they became allies depending on how you look at it. They also have somewhat of a friendship that made them have an alliance, but still had a conflict at the same time, which prevented them from having a good alliance.
