Picky Elizabethan English question: Geico commercial

The English in this quote from the Geico commerial "Oldest Trick" is completely wrong:

Trick Number 1. Lookest over there!
Servant looks
Haha! Madest thou look!
So endest the trick!

Can you figure out what's wrong with his grammar? (Hint: the problem is with the verbs.)

Post your answer, and then I will post my own.
