<p>In <em>Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works</em>, when Rin had just summoned her servant (Archer) and walked into the room he was in, did he notice Rin straight away as a girl he was in love with or knew? And if so, why didn't he tell her? </p>

Did Archer notice who Rin was when she first summoned him in Unlimited Blade Works?

> 'Archer was fairly close to the Rin from his timeline, though he did not recognize the Rin who summoned him as a Servant **until she revealed her name**.' This was because [Rin messed up the summoning](https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/21931/what-is-archers-background-in-unlimited-blade-works) but he regained his memories after hearing her name, though he pretended not to.

**Why didn't he tell her?**
