I'm not sure on everyone saying Eli's death is coming. Eli seemed pissed that Nucky "brought my son into this?!?"

Ok, so this is the only part of an otherwise stellar episode that I didn't get.

So, Nucky couldn't get in touch with Capone or Eli, but they just knew to show up where Nucky was hiding. I understand that they must have got this info from Chalky's crew. However, if Eli knew they were going to where his son worked why would it be a surprise that his son was there? Was the son supposed to be there as a night's watchman? If so, then it should have been a surprise. If not, then when did Nucky call him to tell him to meet them at the lumberyard?

Not bashing the episode in any way. Can't wait for next week.
