For such a small scene I saw a pretty comples interaction(and yes I may be reading more into it than it warrants)

Amy has just finished talking to the Dr about her wedding and how her trip with him are a form of running away from the reality of that huge step. She asks him about his emotional attachments and when she gets an evasive answer only then goes "hunting". She knows he isn't being etirely honest with him and used this to push to Dr, knowing she will get an answer of a sort no matter what the outcome.

It also worked on a number of other levels, first being a showing of her doubts about her marriage(jumping in bed with another man the night before). Also she was laying the demons of the hero worship she has had for him most of her life(even as a child he was the man who was going to come and take her away from all her problems. She needed to see he had feet of clay - or not as the case may be). Finally she established a level of power over the Dr. I don't feel she was comfortable about being so dependant on the Dr in that episode, it was the first time she wasn't part of the solution. She needed something that helped put them on a more equal footing and I think that whatever the outcome she would feel that this was achieved.
