I think it was an editing goof. In the script the characters were probably going somewhere, but when the movie was edited after filming the scene wherever they were going must have been cut out.
Another possibility is that the writers were trying to set the tone of the entire movie. The movie had lots of chaos and action but hardly any mellow moments. So they may have just chosen to open the movie with its two main characters in a rush to get somewhere, because for a majority of the movie they would be rushing to get somewhere or away from somewhere.
I think it must be one of the two reasons I stated because if they were rushing to get a drink and to go swimming, it would only be because they were hot. but rushing would only make them hotter and sweatier, so that explanation doesn't work. A writer or actor would have caught this goof before or during filming and something would have been altered to have it make sense, but the fact that it wasn't leads me to believe it was intentional.
